FOSS alternative to InqScribe? (slrpnk.net)

I am looking for an FOSS alternative to InqScribe that will work on Linux. InqScribe is software used for making transcripts of audio. It essentially allows you to have an audio file and text beside each other and make timestamps in the text based on the audio playing. I don't need anything fancier than that.

Maybe Whisper? This github repo: https://github.com/linto-ai/whisper-timestamped

Says thay whispher can do timestamps on speech segments. However, I don't know if that's what you want, since whispher might only be able to do that if it is transcribing the actual audio, rather than editing another text file.
