Your first point resonates with me.

I am often using a mobile device and away from my computer, but want to put something in my Obsidian notes or a Trello card.

ChatGPT speech rec is excellent (so much better than iOS), so often I will start a temporary chat, press the Mic button, and say something like :

“Take the following dictation and repeat it back to me without adding anything. Don’t alter the content, but clean it up if needed… “. Then I ramble on for a while, with pauses when I need to gather my thoughts for the next bit. Then, when I get the paragraph back, I long press for the copy option and paste it back into my other app.
