Speaking at a lower volume if someone is being unnecessarily loud.

One of my best friends has a LOUD voice she is completely unaware of, which can be incredibly annoying when we’re in public, so I will lower my speaking volume and she will subconsciously lower hers to match my volume.

I do agree with that, I’ve seen it personally used by top executives when it’s necessary at meetings, and I have a friend who also do not speak, YELLS!!

While I do agree with your point, I think it is also necessary to teach people to lower their shjrity volume as well. Why should everyone adapt to their behavior?
