Works fine next to a notes app. Dictation goes into whatever has focus.

Glad the mic gain fixed it. 8 GB is tight for the bigger models, so sticking to tiny/base or quantized whisper.cpp is the sane path there. I’m also adding support for Parakeet models soon. That works incredibly well on CPU only machines with low RAM.

Yeah, pipe-to-bash is a bad habit even when the script is ours. Prefer git clone / AppImage / read install.sh first; the /tmp step is so you can open it before it runs, not so you skip reading it.
