Linux definitely needs a good universal speech recognition system. Its absence is one of the few things that prevent it from being a complete Windows replacement desktop OS.
And in an unrelated note, after over a year I'm finally able to use Firefox as my default browser again! And, embarrassingly, as it turns out my problems with various dialogs and site logins appear to have been my fault. I had a bit of extra time today and decided to start with a clean profile and, viola!, all my problems disappeared. I'm old enough to know I should have tried that before, but I'm also lazy and didn't want to reenter all my credentials again

Good luck finding extra money floating around while the covid situation persists. Government certainly won't have money to spare, and companies are spending money to keep their businesses acceptable for the new regulations.
I know a grant writer and she said she has more work this year than last year.

And if you really want STT, Mozilla will never match other offers currently available, simply because they lack the training samples and the means to get them.

Originally posted by bug77 View PostYeah, because that's also installed on like a billion devices, right?
It's by no means going to match that of the proprietary products, but that's not unusual with open-source in that regard...? Could probably have another initiative that receives funds to acquire more contributions by those that don't want to contribute freely I guess as a workaround, but that requires money :P
