The voice of the companion is awesome.

I'm surprised how good the talk is (i.e. the voice recognition). My disabled brother is struggling with good native polish voice to text btw. If you people can recommend anything good or local

I'm really enjoying https://handy.computer/

Runs local and has several models that should support Polish, though I can not personally validate this.

Can confirm this is a really excellent piece of OSS for local STT, I use it in both English and Dutch.

The only thing it has trouble with are brand/product/tooling/person names. You can add custom vocabulary, but then it tends to over-correct and insert those custom words when I never said them. However this isn't unique to local STT, frontier cloud models also struggle with this.
