This came up a month ago - I forked from something now gone - https://github.com/NickJLange/parrot

And if MacOS 26 does it right - all of this is no longer necessary for us to vibe fork/ code on weekends :-)

P.S. Handy looks slick. May be able to ditch mine

MacOS 27 still has room for improvement; there is a measurable starting latency and error rate.

    I was so excited when they presented "improved dictation" during WWDC, and people reviewing the developer previews seem to think it was a stand-in replacement for things like Whispr Flow, but I am little disappointed with the eventual release. It's not a disaster, but I feel like there's so many small little things they could add to meaningfully improve it. Things like adding a dictionary of words that you can maintain for proper nouns or choosing which mic to use for dictation.

    For me (M1 Studio) it works at least as well and as quickly as Handy or GhostPepper, which are considered two of the best. (Turn on with Keyboard > Dictation, works anywhere you can type text.)
