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 Dragon dictate use to be the thing, but is there anything open source, self-hostable that's superseded it?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.

Yep, I think we have the winner. I've just installed it today and I'm actually responding to your post using handy right now. It's a really great piece of software. Thank you to both of you that recommended this.
