Reply Guy<p>New feature out today in the flash news <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/aggregator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aggregator</span></a>: TTS (text-to-speech).</p><p>Two weeks ago (see: <a href="https://hachyderm.io/@paolog/114131812522555845" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hachyderm.io/@paolog/114131812</span><span class="invisible">522555845</span></a>) the platform acquired the capability to create multiple lists to save / bookmark articles. Building upon that function, it is now possible to have it read aloud all the articles in a list, using the local <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/TTS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTS</span></a> (text-to-speech) voices on your device.</p><p>This could be useful for <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> or to create a kind of "synthetic <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/podcast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>podcast</span></a>".</p><p>For example this short (1' 13") video shows a Samsung tablet reading three articles using the Samsung TTS voices (English and Italian). Note how a light grey background shows the progress while each article is read. The tiny green toolbar at the bottom makes it possible to pause, skip forward and backward and stop altogether the reading.</p><p><a href="https://youtube.com/shorts/5hx9WQzGgps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">youtube.com/shorts/5hx9WQzGgps</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://yewtu.be/watch?v=5hx9WQzGgps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">yewtu.be/watch?v=5hx9WQzGgps</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Note: for this to work you need to install local voices (it does not work well with "cloud" voices), and disable the automatic screen locking (otherwise the reading stops abruptly when the screen locks).</p>
