<p>I used to use it (better mouse) before BTT added Logitech support - but wasn't really happy with it. Every single update changed something, mostly my cursor speed in some small, but sufficiently noticeable way and I had to adjust it every time, which was super annoying.<p>At some point my settings kept getting lost every time my mac went to sleep, and I had to restart the app all the time. I messaged the developer, but never received any response or acknowledgement and I just dropped it. It's a pity, because I did like it for a period of time while I was initially using it.</p>

<p>The one thing I use the most, and how I found it in the first place is that it allows me to combine key presses with mouse gestures/movements. In particular it allows me to move/resize the windows under the cursor just by pressing a key combination and moving my mouse. Many many years ago I used to use AutoHotkey on Windows for this functionality and was missing it when I switched to Mac.<p>Another thing I've configured is scrolling through a key press and dragging the mouse. Or opening a floating menu by using the thumb button on my MX Master3.<p>And that's only mouse functions, I have a bunch of other shortcuts/remappings/automations, many of which run only for specific apps.<p>Have a look in the forum - it's a gold mine and a lot of people have shared their presets.</p>

<p>Get an LLM to generate a preset for what you want - it's ultimately driven by a json config. There are quite a few presets in the forum as well for various functions</p>

<p>For a while now BetterTouchTool [0] supports Logitech mice [1]. It's paid, but it's absolutely worth its price. It's super powerful and you can do all kinds of funky stuff with it, not only mouse related. I would suggest looking into it if you want more advanced features, I've been a very happy user for many years now.<p>[0] <a href="https://folivora.ai" rel="nofollow">https://folivora.ai</a><p>[1] <a href="https://docs.folivora.ai/docs/normal-mouse/logitech" rel="nofollow">https://docs.folivora.ai/docs/normal-mouse/logitech</a></p>

<p>Been working on <a href="https://riffradar.org/" rel="nofollow">https://riffradar.org/</a> - better Spotify recommendations through playlists that update daily.<p>You start with selecting genres you're interested in and can see exactly which bands match your selection from your library (or globally). You can also tweak the playlists in a number of ways through advanced filters like excluding tracks you've played recently, release dates, collaborations, different sort methods.<p>Recently I added a new feature - select a few (or one) playlists and create a "mirror", with tracks belonging to the artists of your selected playlists.<p>Also there are a few other playlist modes I'm working on that will allow you to make more interesting selections.</p>

<p>It is indeed supported only for some languages - you can check the link for which ones. And it's not only about recognising multiple languages, but actual functionality that it's missing. It doesn't have a Bulgarian dictionary and support for swipe in BG, which is what I need...</p>

<p>That's neat! Would love to try it, but am also on iOS :/<p>With the risk of sounding like a broken record - what are people using on iOS? I've been using `SwiftKey` for a while as it has dictionaries for languages that the native keyboard doesn't have. But I would love to switch to something else, as M$ has been shoving AI features on it that I am definitely not interested in.<p>So far in this thread I've seen Grammarly and Nintype. The former seems to suffer from the same things as SwiftKey, while the latter doesn't look it's maintained (last update 7y ago). I don't mind a paid app, as long as it doesn't invade my privacy.</p>

<p>Been working on and off on a Spotify recommendation egnine after getting tired of Spotify’s repetitive recommendations.<p>You get to choose the genres you're interested in, and it creates playlists from the music in your library. They get updated every day - think a better, curated by you version of the Daily Mixes.

Optionally you can get recommendations from artists that belong to playlists you follow or you've created.

<p>I've been working on and off on something [1] that tries to address this problem through somewhat manual curation. You choose what genres you're interested in, and get auto updated playlists created from your music library.<p>I have a few other experimental features in the pipeline that will expand the music selection, but they are not there yet.<p>[1] <a href="https://riffradar.org/" rel="nofollow">https://riffradar.org/</a></p>

<p>I used iCloud in the past, but found that syncing between a few devices sometimes left my notes in a weird state - sometimes overwritten, missing, etc. I switched some time ago to <a href="https://github.com/remotely-save/remotely-save" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/remotely-save/remotely-save</a> with backblaze and I periodically sync to a git repo for a second backup.

<p>I'm using <a href="https://spokenly.app/" rel="nofollow">https://spokenly.app/</a> in local mode, which is free. Very happy with it. It supports a bunch of models, including whisper and parakeet. Right now I'm mostly using parakeet v3 on my desktop, but it tends to do a bit more errors, although it is very fast. I cycle betwen it and Distil-Whisper Large V3.5, which is a bit slower.<p>On iOS I'm also using the same app, with the Apple Speech model, which I found out to be better performing for me than the parakeet/whisper. One drawback for the apple model is that you need iOS/Mac 26+ - and I haven't bothered to update to Tahoe on my mac.<p>Both of the models work instantly for me (Mac M1, iphone 17 Pro).<p>Edit: Aaaand I just saw that you're looking for speech-to-speech. Oops, still sleeping.</p>
