Can you build a Linux version? :-)

Still haven't managed to find one that works as well as MacWhisper.

Get your favourite coding agent to make one. These things are incredibly simple. You really only need a few ingredients:

- `sherpa-onnx` bindings for your favourite language

- package for capturing your mic input

- package for hotkey capture

- package for clipboard management (or shell out to `xclip`)

- shell out to `xdotool key --clearmodifiers "ctrl+v"` to paste

Tell it to go research all the above and then assemble into whatever form you want. I had Claude write a Go daemon that loads parakeet and runs as a systemd user service listening for Alt-Space in about 20 minutes.

Check out SpeechNote, works great on both CPU based and GPU based machines depending on the model you use: https://github.com/mkiol/dsnote

Generally speaking, it is the hardware not the OS that makes it easier to build for Macs right now.

Apple Neural Engine is a sleeping giant, in the middle of all this.

Parakeet still runs at 5x realtime on a middle-of-the-road CPU; it should be quite doable (at the cost of some battery life).

Mac-only for now but might port to Linux if there's enough demand. What desktop environment are you using?

Gnome on Debian. I'm a simple man.
