Started using the open-source note-taking app Joplin (linux desktop) two weeks ago and am genuinely impressed, mostly with its customizability.
As part of my workflow I use voice memos and being able to send those to Joplin as text is very appealing to me. So I put together a command-line Linux (usable from the Gnome desktop too) utility to record voice memos, transcribe them into text and create new Joplin notes (using the data API).
It uses whisper.cpp and is, to my surprise, quite accurate, usable and practical in this context. Transcribes to the clipboard too.
Please, take a look: https://github.com/QuantiusBenignus/NoteWhispers
With the temp files in memory and native compilation of whisper, the utility is quite snappy especially with the "tiny.en" model.
Definitely not a one-click solution but the setup process is quite customizable and relatively easy to follow for an average Linux user. The shell script (zsh or bash) will do some sanity checks and provide guidance, however, those interested may want to read the README file.
A legitimate use case for whisper.cpp IMHO.
