phones have pretty good transcription apis these days, I would imagine @Colby Serpa is using device translation. why is it a weird client requirement? it seems practical. having transcriptions that are asyncronously tacked on afterwards by others seems a lot more complicated and not reliable.

iOS 26 native transcriptions are great. iOS 25 and before fall back to whisper, which @franny was using earlier today. Whisper requires a bit slower speaking cadence. If transcriptions are bad, no one will read your post. Or they will eventually unfollow you.
