I’m late to this party but I strongly up vote this feature request.
For background, I was excited to discover obsidian and try it on my Mac, but unfortunately it doesn’t support the speech recognition built into MacOS.
Actually, it’s more puzzling than that. MacOS allows you to do ad hoc dictation by pressing the command key twice. That works fine with obsidian.
But you can also turn on Voice Control to control your Mac with your voice, which saves a great deal of wear and tear on your carpal tunnel. But it disables the ad hoc dictation described above and replaces it with a more robust version of speech recognition. That’s a good thing for most apps other than obsidian, but for some reason obsidian doesn’t support that speech recognition. Which means I have to turn off voice control in order to dictate into obsidian. Sadly, that’s a nonstarter for me and my aging hands.
Would that I had the technical chops to provide a solution for this but I don’t. That said, I’d love to see a fix in some future version of obsidian.
