Accidently found how to posting on this forum without typing on a keyboard. I use voice and talking with my headset to posting on this forum.

You don't need any code and software to do this. For windows just go to Windows Speech Recognition - Set up Speech Recognition - Select the type of microphone (headset recommended) - try your voice - and next if you have privacy concerns select Disable document review - next Use manual or voice for activation mode.

It's not only about making a post in the forum using this speech recognition tool, with windows having this feature enabled you can do it anywhere when you need an input. So, this is no way a meta topic 😛
My best guess will be the H&B board or off-topic.

I am not a fan of voice assistants. In Windows, you can have Cortana: What is Cortana? (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17214/cortana-what-is). I have never cared to use Windows' Cortana. Maybe some people will need it but I don't if I can see and can type to search.

Your idea is good because it comes from Windows. For third party applications, they are unsafe to use.

Hey! this is good Man! let me try this one and I think we will not only get some extra time with this tool but as a non-English speaker, we will have some chance to improve our way of speaking English in other words, our accent. By the way, is it only available? for Windows 10 users? how about the other OS? or some low version of windows, can we still use this program or not?

that's true, We are also can write using voice typing on Android. sometime I'm using it when I'm driving. of course using this make us easy to type, but as ocTradism say may this way not safe for our privacy.

I know it for a few years. I also tried it sometimes for checking the accuracy of voice typing for searching on google or in MS word. It works quite good but it helps when you have something commit to you memory. And when you need to think before typing the words I think it less helpful in this case. And personally, I always love to write than speach typing.

I've cropped your image a bit just for the text you typed in.
So, made an experiment, I've used speech recognition and read the text you had in your post...and the results...oh..I think I need to buy a new microphone  ;D


I seriously wonder if someone can mess it up worse than me, and looking at it once more I guess I'll avoid for a while talking English over Skype with friends till I regain my confidence. Probably later I'll try to listen to the recording but right now I can't bring myself to do so.

You probably don't understand all the features of speech recognition. Have you ever attended school? Did you write dictations? This function is exactly that. You dictate whatever you would like to be printed in the message. But if you don't speak English, it won't help you in any way. The voice assistant will type in the language in which you dictate the text. If there are mistakes in speech, then, for the most part, mistakes will be in the text.
Moreover, if we talk about an assistant like Cortana, then for security reasons, many users, on the contrary, disable it.
Because all voice commands will not only be recognized, but all samples of the user's voice will be saved in the future. Microsoft closely monitors each user, so voice recording is one of the many surveillance features of Windows

Windows speech recognition is not working in all laptops.
It depends on the language that your computer is set. If the language that you have set your computer is not supported by the Windows speech recognition you will not be able to used it. The solution is to switch the language to a supported one - such as English.

Speech recognition sucks most of the time, sometimes I used to do that on my mobile but trust me it will make your posts worse.But that is a useful idea for someone lasy like me but I hope windows will provide better voice recognition in their future updates.

I'm not really interested in a voice assistant...
my husband and I live in a cramped house, if I use a voice assistant it really disturbs my children, it's much better if I only use the keyboard. but I think this is a good idea for those who are lazy to use the keyboard.

I don't like voice input, because there is no guarantee that what you say will not be passed on to third parties for the purpose of collecting information.

Even the phone can no longer be trusted, because many times before I noticed how advertisements of what I spoke only out loud began to appear in it. Since then, I've limited its functionality to the best of my ability.

This usually applies to lazy people once you type lazy on the keyboard i find it very annoying to use once we start typing by opening the keyboard on our android phone we've to face a drag once we attend a difficult word we will not type the word properly. This problem happens to all or any folks with the bangla keyboard of our android phone not everyone's choice is that the same.

Also, it is not guaranteed that what you were saying will be clearly understood by the software because we have different accents so I think instead of making it easier you will be annoyed instead and I experience it first hand, for example in using Cortana in windows it's so annoying that I decided to permanently disable it.

What about if you are not an english speaker?or fluent ?would this be helpful as well?

but this is cool if we need not to type anymore and just a voice will do the rest.same thoughts here.

Even if you are typing still the information will be collected so you can't avoid this simply because you think that if you say in voice then your sensitive information will get leaked.

Okey people, I read the problem with voice language. I will try to do the best for you all.

there is 2 step you must try it.

1. let's try to change display language windows 10,

• open setting
• Go to Time & Language
• click on the Region & Language
• select the language you want to display Windows 10, if your language isn't ready, click option then download language you want
• when downloaded, select language as default

2. next step is change the Speech Recognition Language

• go to control panel
• click Ease of Access
• then click Speech Recognition
• click Advanced speech options
• select language your set as default at 1st step

Let me know if it's work,  ;) ;)

I've tested a few voice assistants for fun. Google Assistant is well ahead of the others. Alexa is better at voice recognition than Siri but requires you to memorize and use commands. Siri is much smarter than Alexa in not requiring the commands but it is not as good as recognizing your voice.

I too instead of typing a lot on the keyboard to write posts here, e-mails, take notes I use a chrome voice to text extension via microphone, it's much more comfortable and I found myself very well immediately

Noise is one of reasons i never really used it that much.  I just see it as optional writing tool incase of emergency, when I have something on my hands, or when I want to test it.
Not sure if i have ever used it on computer for anything serious. Tend to be more  accurate and easy on phones than laptops.

I just searching and find how to use on Linux https://www.maketecheasier.com/virtual-assistants-for-linux
you need to install it first using a terminal or any app image because on Linux voice assistant is not included like windows.

Somehow I love typing more than speaking and then posting it. It will depend upon each and every individual choice and I am happy being typing it be it for the post, email or any communication I have to do with anybody goes in typing and I enjoy it.

Thank you for this, was a good tutorial. I am not the best with computers so always appreciate a step by step solution. Unfortunately I am using this forum most of the time from my cell phone when in the train or on the move. Did you guys try it out on a cellphone? Maybe there is a good App for this too? I am using Android and get most of my Apps from the Play Store.
