I made a voice transcription decky plugin for voice typing, try it out!

Hi everyone, I am very excited to share the plugin I coded during the last weekend! You can find it at https://github.com/mimed95/decky-voxtype/releases and install the zip via the decky developer settings. I plan to release it via the official decky store as well.

It starts voice transcription after a button press (that you can map, 1 or 2-button combo possible) and copies the transcribed text to the clipboard. The plugin uses the voxtype binary as its backend, which itself uses whisper.cpp and we even have GPU acceleration via Vulkan available right this first beta release. There different models available for transcription use depending on how fast or accurate you want your transcription to be. The english ones tend to work better than the multi-language ones.

Right now the button that you mapped to control it can conflict with in-game inputs, as a workaround you could open the steam menu during the game and then start the transcription. Let me know how it works for you. I think it is a big convenience boost, especially if you use the Deck docked.

If you wanna check out a demo video let me know and I'll post a link to it in the thread!
