EchoNote 1.0.3: top-bar indicator + silence auto-stop

EchoNote 1.0.3: a recording indicator in the top bar, and recording that stops itself when you stop talking.

• Top-bar recording indicator, like GNOME's screen recorder: a red dot appears in the top bar only while the microphone is recording. A green check shows for 3 seconds after you stop, then the icon disappears. On GNOME this needs the AppIndicator extension:
  sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-appindicator, then log out and back in. Without it, EchoNote shows its small floating popup instead (Settings → While recording).
• Silence auto-stop. Recording stops by itself after 5 seconds without speech (configurable, or off). If nothing was said at all, nothing is saved.
• Fixes:
  • "In two minutes" reminders were rounded down to the minute and could fire up to 59 s early.
  • Dates are now worked out from when you spoke, not from when the AI got to the note.

Install / upgrade

sudo dnf install ./echonote-1.0.3.x86_64.rpm            # Fedora (also upgrades 1.0.2)
chmod +x EchoNote-1.0.3-x86_64.AppImage && ./EchoNote-1.0.3-x86_64.AppImage   # other distributions

Everything runs locally (whisper.cpp + Gemma 4 E2B via llama.cpp). The first launch downloads the models (2.7 GB) once. Uninstall from GNOME Software → Installed, or sudo dnf remove echonote.
