From one dyslexic to another, who never got the option to even use a computer in school or college and instead was forced to write out everything long-hand, thank you so much for this.
I use voice-to-text in the workshop and when taking notes and reviewing a PR. And all the current options are pretty much what you would expect. More focused on accuracy, which is usually quite poor, which, to paraphrase, "It's Erin with an E. Oh for **s sake, Erin. ERIN! E. R. I. N. <pause> N. I said N. Eh-rin. Fine. Whatever." so anything that can improve on that experience will be immensely helpful.
Looking forward to seeing where you go with this, and I hope at some point you make a native desktop application.
- the_king 3y agoI think I developed "bad handwriting" partially to hide misspellings—this is necessary in school though. On pure WER we are state-of-the-art in our testing, but more importantly, mistakes in Aqua are correctable. So you can speak your mind instead of having to wait until you have the perfect sentence and then dictate it. That said, we know it's not perfect, but we know a few more months of work will have it really solid.
