  1. There are great advancements in Text to Speech (as well as dictation) software (such as Piper, Mimic3), including free software, but standard packaging for it is missing. I'd love to use my years of packaging experience to work on it, delivering packages for major distros, as well as Termux and TTS Engine APK, the end goal being having them all accepted into the distros (including F-Droid). Would you join funding this work?

  5. Ce week-end, je me suis amusé sur mon poste avec #mycroft et #mimic3 (text to speech) en français. Bon, on va pas se mentir, ce n'est pas parfait mais j'arrive à interroger wikipedia et lancer des musiques sur spotify. La prochaine étape est de changer le "wakeword" puis peut etre la partie "speech to text" qui est encore celui de google indirectement. Le plus bizarre / marrant est la lecture de mot anglais en français 🥖

  6. I'm looking through the #Mimic3 voices for #MyCroft on the mycroft.ai website, and it's vast. There's so many languages and accents to find. What I find odd, though, is that German language speech synthesizer has emotions on it. The system can speak in a drunken, sleepy, or amused tone. We have truly come a long way with this technology. (BTW, no one needs to tell me about the origins of these samples.) #TextToSpeech #TTS

  15. @oss Yea, not to go into complete shill mode here (I am a fan though, so no promises) the software is currently available on GitHub (github.com/MycroftAI/mycroft-c), and I've had a lot of success just basically running it on anything I try. Even got it to work on my #PinePhone. It's also been integrated with the new KDE Plasma Bigscreen for the voice control aspects.

    If you want to test it out, it runs on as little as a Pi3, though you can't really get the #Mimic3 with that.

  18. @mahmoudajawad Hardware wise, they've been abysmally slow. Software wise, they've been OK. They've recently put out #Mimic3, which is really good actually. It's separate from #Mycroft, so it can be used for pretty much anything, and its quality is up there with any TTS solution I've heard running on a local machine.

  21. Ooo, installed #Mimic3 in my #WSL #Ubuntu, and configured my new #Mycroft instance to use it. Works beautifully. I wonder if I can get all this running on the #SteamDeck when it comes in. It's #Arch after all, so I don't see why it shouldn't work.

  26. A fun and slightly weird introductory video of #Mimic3 by #Mycroft. Watched it last night with my wife. Her reaction was, "WTF was that?" Not inappropriate, but still funny.

  29. @pixelherodev I haven't tried this personally, so grain of salt here, but it's my understanding that the entire stack CAN run offline now. The #Selene part is still the biggest PITA as they don't have easy configuration to use it and it's setup is a pretty big pain. It's also not a turn key thing to switch #Mycroft installations from the default cloud version to the locally hosted version. #Mimic3 is by far the easiest to use. Despite all that, it is an option to run everything fully on prem.

  32. #Mycroft's #Mimic3 is now live and ready for use. If you've got a project that requires TTS, it could be a very good option for you. It respects your privacy, runs fully offline, and it's open source. On top of all that, there's hundreds of voices to choose from and speaks dozens of languages.

  35. @blackfire Nothing 3rd party, and I'm being more than a little hyperbolic, but there are instructions on the Github page:

    github.com/MycroftAI/selene-ba

    Theoretically with the backend on prem, any instances pointed to that backend, and a local install, you can run the whole stack privately and offline. I've never done the whole stack, and Mimic3 is still so new that you have to request the files manually, but I'd love to see this working.

  37. @popey So far, seems really good. High quality TTS. When the AP voice tells me "The weather in Phoenix is ^$@%^@ing hot", I almost believe you're the one saying it. Some of the English US voices have an almost Indian accent to them, which is probably something that needs fixing, but overall the 15-20 minutes I've spent with it have been really impressive. Can't install it locally yet, but the fact that you can have a single Mimic3 instance for all your speakers is cool.
