Meanwhile, sites like Hacker News and reddit[1] haven't changed much.

Are you really still typing?
Wispr Flow is the AI dictation tool most of us at Product Hunt. Hold a key, talk, and clean text drops straight into whatever app you're already in — Slack, email, Notion, your IDE, wherever your cursor lives. No switching windows. No copy-paste ritual. Just say the thing – yes, you can whisper it – and even your most run-on sentences will be turned into polished writing at 4x the speed of typing.
