@thelinuxEXP I really like Speech Note! It's a fantastic tool for quick and local voice transcription in multiple languages, created by @mkiol
It's incredibly handy for capturing thoughts on the go, conducting interviews, or making voice memos without worrying about language barriers. The app uses strictly locally running LLMs, and its ease of use makes it a standout choice for anyone needing offline transcription services.
I primarily use #WhisperAI for transcription and Piper for voice, but many other models are available as well.
It is available as flatpak and https://github.com/mkiol/dsnote

Lots of new people migrating to Mastodon from Twitter! Given that the crowd is very different here, I thought I'd reintroduce myself by being more open than usual about my recent art.
'⦵ (pour Isidore)' is series of works (including speech synthesis, photography, graph analysis, found artefacts and text) presented across a wav and a pdf. There is no streaming preview.
