Hello all! I’m looking for a good alternative to Google Translate. I would prefer one that isn’t using a modern LLM, but I understand if that’s not possible. I would also like it to not be collecting personal data.

    This might not be a perfect fit or off topic but I had to chime in and recomend Transcribro Transcribro is a private and on-device speech recognition keyboard and service for Android. It uses whisper.cpp to run the OpenAI Whisper family of models and Silero VAD for voice activity detection. It features a voice input keyboard, enabling you to type with speech. It can also be used by other apps either explicitly or when set as the user-selected speech to text app which some apps may use for speech to text. Transcribro is available on the Accrescent app store and GitHub releases. Accrescent is the recommended way to get Transcribro as it is more secure than GitHub releases. altr
