If anyone is having difficulty typing for whatever reason, you may want to check out the dictation-toolbox organization on GitHub [1]. About a decade ago I began developing symptoms from excessive typing on a MacBook Pro (that short key travel distance is a killer). The pain is still pretty persistent, but I have ways of managing and part of that was relying on dictation. When I got started with dictation, I saw several people were solving different parts of the same problem in different ways. The dictation-toolbox organization is my attempt to collate all of that work together.
Unfortunately, there's not a great out-of-the-box solution and there are several tools in there that still "compete" in some sense. But, at least they're all centrally located and devs from the various projects bounce ideas off each other. Each of the devs is very responsive and will help you get started. Pull requests are always welcomed, but even just suggestions for overall improvements are well-received.
Whether due to genetics or environment, an injury/condition can be annoying enough. Having it also potentially compromise your source of income is just additional stress. I won't say dictation is a silver bullet, but it really helped me out. Hopefully it can help you out as well.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you have questions, need help getting started, or want to get involved.
