Show HN: Privacy-First Voice-to-Text for macOS (github.com)

This looks awesome, there are a lot of Whisper-based tools on macOS that have become paid for basic features

I'll definitely try this out

As someone who doesn't use dictation in any form, I'm curious how this compares to the built-in dictation functions of macOS or iOS?

I am definitely gonna try this out. I use dictation daily so this looks really useful.

The demo video[1] shows the transcription starts before recording is stopped, but I couldn't recreate this with the actual app. The transcription would not show after a minute of recording, but it was all there once I hit stop.

Was this changed since the video was made? Or is there a setting?
