Voice to text accuracy improvement

I am trying to transition from dragon for Mac to the native Mac microphone and Voice to text, but so far, the Apple version seems to be riddled with inaccuracies. Is there a way to better train apple's voice to text to my voice? I checked this in the community, found Dead (I did not ask four Dead to be capitalized as example) conversations and threads.

Any ideas would be helpful. I can still run dragon of course, but it's no longer supported

macOS text-to-speech app with annunciation codes I'm looking for a certain implementation of text to speech application for Mac. Years ago I used one that would accept many different codes to modify the annunciation just a bit. Things like [strong 2] would raise the volume of the next two words, or maybe [p:2.5] would pause for 2.5 seconds. To be clear, it needs to run under macOS, not iPhone or iPad. And if it all possible if I could do that kind of thing with my own voice, that would be cool, but just even text to speech and a robotic voice is good enough. The App Store has a gazillion text-to-speech apps, but I don't want to spend a dollar here and $10 there experimenting with a bunch of them. Any ideas?

Voice Control Dictation Mode not recognizing commands I can dictate using Voice Control, but when I ask "Select [text]" or "Correct [text]" I get "[text] not found!" This is the issue on my desktop and my MacBook with Tahoe 26.0.1 and I'm using the built in mic, Air Pods, and a USB microphone.
