Apparently in the past day, they’ve removed all the logos from the Microgrants projects and clarified that the grants are unsolicited

    The voice recognition is honestly the best I’ve ever used. It’ll be a shame to give it up.

    If I decide to switch keyboards, I’m certain I would go back to HeliBoard.

    There’s been a real explosion of open source voice recognition over the past few months, and I haven’t tested a lot. Whisper+ looks like a promising one. Before using Futo, I used Sayboard, which I was pretty happy with.

      Careful, I heard one of the Heliboard devs kicked a puppy once. How dare you support such Evil software?!

      /s because sadly that’s needed

    • I was really loving Futo keyboard, but when companies are tied to any atrocities, or in this case, plain general evil, it’s really tough to stick with. I jumped very briefly over to Sayboard before your post (saw it on F-Droid), but I’m hoping Whisper+ works better, as I think I’ll simultaneously be using it for my upcoming HA voice assistant project.

      Their voice recognition is just OpenAI Whisper. Transcribro uses the exact same thing. It’s just not built into a handy key on the keyboard.
