TTS with coqui xTTS is fun to run with a known voice (10sec wav file is enought). It requires some resources but far less than STT like faster-whisper. I think the main issue is not running them but integrate them with the OS/softwares.

Many of us have this kind of feeling. That’s why there are: Small web, inidie web, Gemini… Without being extremist with noJS websites (even if it’s not a bad idea), let’s create content outside platforms. I hope a day blogs will come back and RSS reader became back a trend. So we’ll take back control of a (small) part of the Internet.
