alt Hacker NewsI really liked wisprflow on my mac but my daily driver is Manjaro KDE. I have stitched together a bash script that copies the transcription (right now I am using the Parakeet TDT 0.6B) to my clipboard. I would give this a try on linux when it becomes available.

Would you be open to sharing your script? I run whisper.cpp in Linux through some stitched together scripts (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44949314), but would be very curious to try Parakeet. I don't believe I can run it through whisper.cpp?

Just checked out whisprflow, I must say that looks really nice, kudos to those devs. Shame there isn't a Linux / Android version.
I have added the auto-copy to clipboard functionality that will come with the next Android release and be included in all others. Adding a hotkey / quickbar button is on the roadmap for the desktop versions.
If you want to give the Linux version a shot, you can download it from here - https://downloads.formait.app/whistle/linux/WhistleDesktop-l... - I've just stuck it in the same R2 bucket as another app, as I've not sorted the proper pipeline out yet.
