Hide self-view in tile view #8477

Describe the solution you'd like Would like to have the option to hide, or at the very least minimise my own camera/video input in the tile view.

Seeing my own video can be very distracting, as I find my eyes are drawn to what I'm doing rather than the person I'm speaking to. Also, depending on the number of people, removing your own video can be more space efficient - e.g., at certain resolutions, 4 videos fill up the screen nicely, but a 5th video forces every video to be much smaller.

The focus/spotlight view (showing one person at a time) already does this by putting my video up in the top right corner - this is exactly the kind of thing I'm looking for, except in the tile view instead.

Google Meet's "grid" view also does this, for reference.

Describe alternatives you've considered The spotlight view is an okay alternative when I really don't want to see myself, but there are certain meetings where being able to see everyone at once is much better - e.g. playing role-playing games where you want to be able to see everyone's reactions.

Hi, Just for the record, I haven't had time to look into this and propose some code modification, the original PR https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/pull/10531 , HTH
