v0.15.0

Added

  • macOS support (Apple Silicon, experimental). Fono now runs on
    macOS: dictation, the voice assistant, local and cloud providers,
    a native menu-bar icon with the full menu, the on-screen recording
    indicator, global hotkeys (no special permission needed), text
    injection at the cursor, and local text-to-speech. Releases attach a
    single Metal-accelerated aarch64-apple-darwin binary — GPU
    transcription is ~4× faster than CPU at almost no size cost, so
    there is no separate CPU download. fono install sets everything up
    per-user (no sudo): an app bundle, start-at-login, and a guided
    one-time permissions flow — the microphone and Accessibility grants
    are keyed to a stable local signature, so they survive every
    fono update instead of breaking after each one. Caveat: the port
    was developed and verified on a headless remote Mac; on-screen
    behaviour (menu bar, overlay, permission prompts) has not yet been
    eyeballed on a physical display. If you have an Apple Silicon Mac,
    giving it a try and filing an issue with what you find — good or
    bad — would genuinely help; see docs/build-macos.md for what's
    been checked so far.
