From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been following this project

They recently got a bunch of investment and hired some staff, and so they're developing fairly quickly. I saw an update about local Whisper support the other day
Assuming it stays user friendly (currently open source - MIT), it might be a good option for you. Previously it was here:
