Voice Control was supposed to be the Future. Is Linux lagging behind?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/linux

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • mycroft-core

    Mycroft Core, the Mycroft Artificial Intelligence platform.

  • I heard about Mycroft, I did not follow the project and I don't know what its current status is, as I find voice control useless for me

  • Leon

    🧠 Leon is your open-source personal assistant.

  • I literally had this thought a couple of days ago and went down a small rabbit hole looking into it too! There's some stuff out there (I saw Mycroft and Coqui mentioned in the comments already, also check out Leon, Jarvis, and OA although not sure they all deploy to Linux) but ultimately, I just don't think the tech is there yet.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • nerd-dictation

    Simple, hackable offline speech to text - using the VOSK-API.

  • 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.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
