Discussion This property is always true for the local participant. You can observe which remote participants are nearby with the $activeParticipants publisher. for await activeParticipants in session.$activeParticipants.values {     // Ignore the local participant value that defaults to 'true'.     self.isNearbyWithOthers = activeParticipants.contains {          $0 != session.localParticipant && $0.isNearbyWithLocalParticipant     } }
