I can heartily recommend switching to private local speech to text voice input with Handy. https://handy.computer/about

Is this the open source whisperflow clone? I think I saw a positive review about it yesterday on social media

Sounds even worse (and I'm generally not a fan of speech to text interfaces, as typing is a lot quicker and easier on the brain); imagine a co-worker or your wife steps in and asks a question, your "Yes" turns into an answer to your coding agent.

That’d be pretty funny actually

But I don’t think you have it always listening, you probably tab the space bar to talk and send a prompt, walkie-talkie style, push to talk

typing is a lot quicker and easier on the brain

It depends what kind of work you are doing. It's certainly not quicker for general discourse, even if you are a fast typer.
