minus-squarePika@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·2 months agoTHIS NEEDS TO BE MAINSTREAM. There is very little reason that with the digital behemoths that microwaves are now, that a simple “sound off” setting can’t be done. I would also love a “sound off for this cycle” option, but that might be being too needy

Most microwaves already have this feature, it’s just not obvious how to use it. Read your microwave’s user manual.
