  They’re already using rust for their backend services. This seems like a good use case for dioxus/tauri

There is no reason to download it, just use the website.

  Going through the settings now. I was using the desktop client because the web browser version didn’t support voice activity (only push to talk), but it looks like that’s no longer the case?
