I use a gate filter to block sound that isn’t up close and loud, it essentially functions like voice activation with configurable hysteresis. Then next I also use a RNNoise filter I think it’s called, which is the machine learning noise filter that blocks unwanted non-voice sounds.
If you need a hand I can take screenshots or something when I am next at my PC?
These are my app, gate and noise reduction filter settings, and the order they are enabled in for my microphone input. I am using the easyeffects flatpak which seems to include the standard noise reduction ML model.
You might need to study the gate settings for a minute to tweak them to your needs, I suspect you’ll only need to change the curve threshold (-22db in my pic) to pick up your voice when you speak into it, but not background noises. You can use the db values shown in-app while speaking to help adjust it.

Yes please! Or if you followed a tutorial, a link would suffice too
