Best speech to text for arthritic fingers? [SOLVED: using Handy] (aussie.zone)

I'm starting to develop arthritis in my fingers, which makes typing an interesting challenge.

I'm wondering, what is the best self-hosted solution for speech-to-text generally? Dragon dictate use to be the thing, but is there anything open source, self-hostable that's superseded it?

I would love to be able to have something that I can speak into that can interact with pretty much any app, be that notepad++, or my web browser when I'm entering stuff or even when I'm creating this Lemmy post (which I actually made using futo voice on my phone).

Windows and/or Linux ideally.

Any leads? Getting old sucks.

I've started my own foray into push-to-talk and speech-to-text recently. I opted for faster-whisper since I wanted a lighter, local approach. It might be more DIY than what you're looking for, but I just wanted to chime in since it's fresh on my mind.

Thanks - that's worth a gander
