How do I get rid of this visual affordance?

Solution

Uncheck the Show in Menu Bar option located in System Preferences > Dock & Menu Bar > Do Not Disturb Do Not Disturb panel in System Preferences app Note that you can also show the icon only when Do Not Disturb is active by checking the option and select when active option.

OTHER TIPS

@tama's answer is correct, but as a quicker way you can also hold the ⌘ Command key and drag the icon out of the menubar to remove it.

Demonstration

This trick works with a number of the macOS system icons in the menubar.
