How many end users are going to pay $12 a month not many…
Wisprflow is not $12/month better than ios.

I’d much rather have “cheap, dependable, and good enough” over oligarch pricing for what used to be a one time software purchase any day.

The value just isn’t there for $12. This is just developers being greedy as their cost is nowhere near $12.

Compare this to other things and the value yielded is nowhere as near as better purchases.

I just installed this and already despise its pricing model. I trust this product approximately zero.
Open-source STT apps are plenty and just as good. Pick one from this list:
