nerd-dictation VS vosk-android-demo

nerd-dictation

There's no built-in way of doing this in GNOME, but you might already get a bit further with tools like https://github.com/ideasman42/nerd-dictation

I'm not familiar with Talon so I don't know if this is a suitable suggestion but nerd-dictation seemed to have been well received here when it was last promoted and it looks like it's still in active development.

TBF Microsoft dropped IE, windows phone... that is not uncommon. But the OP is right, maybe not much for voice control but for dictation certainly. The FLOSS community is always far behind and thus always struggle with new technologies. We should be prepared. Since you've mentioned small open source project here's a demo of NerdDitaction. FYI Linux do have mobile devices developing.

Yeah you get me. I did have RSI which was amplified by my other issue, but it was that issue that progressed and why can't type now, not RSI. I'd be interested in hearing about using numen in combination with typing, but it's likely not ideal yet. Maybe just using speech to text for some things could help? It's not my project but there's: https://github.com/ideasman42/nerd-dictation that uses the same speech recognition as numen.

If Dicio glitches for you (it has trouble downloading the models sometimes), you can try the Vosk demo app instead. It will just print out what you say.

No, however there is the Vosk Android Demo Keyboard It's more of a proof of concept than it is practical, but its functional if you need that feature.

There is the idea to wrap the lbrary in an "input device" for android but nothing concrete

Hey, contrary to this, I've found an open source android voice recognition software that works offline, it seems to be very lightweight, it's called Vosk https://github.com/alphacep/vosk-android-demo
