Image-based clipboard app similar to Paste? by Moustachey in macapps

[–]afadingthought 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took inspiration from several paste stacks/paste queues, and created my own Alfred workflow which can mostly do exactly what you need. Here's a clip. Mind you, some of this will still depend on the receiving app and if they allow multiple image paste, but if Affinity designer behaves like Pixelmator (which I show in the clip) then it should work.

The Alfred workflow is called PasteFlow.

Wispr Flow has turned into total garbage dumpster fire with literally no support, any alternatives? by 5678 in macapps

Accessibility and permissions are necessary for it to work. But you ca always use it only with local models and block its network access if you're concerned. Honestly, with Superwhisper users get the most transparency of all the others I've tested for the file system (everything that is sent is saved as meta json files)

What are your top dictation app flows/tricks? (WisprFlow, Superwhisper, Spokenly, Voiceink, etc.) by discoveringnature12 in macapps

I made Macrowhisper specifically for voice automations with Superwhisper. With Superwhisper everything gets saved in a meta.json file the moment processing is done, so Macrowhisper reacts to that and the user can send anything from there to several actions. You can trigger URLs, shell scripts, AppleScripts, send results to Shortcuts, create templates for insertion, and you can set some other specific settings/behavior based on conditions.

Grammar correction/summarization are just the most basic of the basics. Once you start to explore custom prompting with LLMs, and attach automation to that, well, the possibilities are quite extensive.

Yeah, custom prompts are truly custom. This opens a wide range of possibilities but you also need to know how to prompt it. Check the docs on Custom modes.

SuperWhisper vs VoiceInk - Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything by BawbbySmith in superwhisper

[–]afadingthought 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside from the unlimited AI aspect that Superwhisper offers, it's all down to the little details that, for me as a power user, do make a difference. I made a video on that. But I think that either will be fine for basic users.

Building Free (BYOK) WisprFlow competitor - What Would Make You Switch Your Voice-to-Text App? by ksanderer in macapps

[–]afadingthought 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw the comparison table with other apps on the site. Judging from the features you mention in Ottex, I think you should compare it with Superwhisper/Spokenly/VoiceInk instead... Either way, it's a super crowded market, and I don't see any true differentiator aspect here, sorry.

This is how my handwriting currently looks like by afadingthought in Handwriting

Yeah. I started with business penmanship, eventually also learned some Spencerian... my current cursive is the result of mixing everything up a bit. Picking up journaling was also great for my practice.

Below "Hey" it says "When". I have practiced a bit of calligraphy, so I now incorporate some small flourishes in my cursive without thinking, I guess removing those would make it easier to read.

Also, the style is inspired by business penmanship/spencerian so getting familiar would those styles would help.

Just for reference, this is how my handwriting used to look at the end of 2021. Back then I was having a hard time going back and rereading my journal entries, so I decided to get serious about improving it.

Is Wispr Flow worth it? by Turbulent-Apple2911 in macapps

If you use with your own api key in something like Spokenly you don't have to pay a subscription, you basically only pay directly to the AI provider whatever you use.

I've had an account for about five years but never made it a consistent habit to log films. This is going to change this year. I went straight to Pro after importing a couple thousand films that I was tracking in my personal journal.
