#sherpatts — Public Fediverse posts

I've been tinkering with #marmaladeTTS on #grapheneos which has some pretty useful features like the ability to assign specific voices to an app. I can also disable network permissions after I downloaded the engines with different voices.

Previously I've been using #SherpaTTS which has been a life saver in the #opensource #TextToSpeech space. Marmalade is easier to test and configure the voices to get natural sounding voices, but it's limited to English. Sherpa TTS is still going to be the go to for other languages.

Just managed to make SherpaTTS the default on my phone and now Comaps is talking to me! 🤩 Can't wait to try it out in the wild!

@jibbolus I totally get that. My mind is very chaotic and if the devices I use cannot keep up with me, I really suffer. So far, no experiences of that kind with the #Fairphone6. At least none of note. #FUTO Keyboard's voice typing is very fast, and I can use larger models for better accuracy as well, which I'm really happy with. I can also use #SherpaTTS for nice quality text-to-speech. GlaDOS is a particularly pleasant voice to use, so I feel like that is a bit slow. I will try a slimmer model.

Tried to find an online demo for sherpa tts but am not sure if this is the right one?

Has A LOT if diff. languages/speakers and 8 from 11 german speakers do sound acceptable human/realistic.

Ich hatte die Meldung gestern auch das erste (und zweite) Mal.

Bei #Aves und #SherpaTTS.
Interessant fand ich auch, dass die Meldung die #Apps nur als schädlich einstuft, ohne konkret zu benennen, was sie böses tun sollen.

Pourquoi tant de haine 😢 la seule rare application de #TextToSpeech #sherpaTTS en qui on peut faire confiance cessera de fonctionner sur certains Android.

À partir de 2026-2027, toutes les applications sur les appareils "#Android certifiés" exigeront des dev leurs informations d'identité personnelle directement à #Google : https://developer.android.com/developer-verification

C'est super honorable de voir qu'il n'y a pas de compromission possible pour eux, mais c'est dommage pour nous. Encore obligé de trinquer.

Working on #adacompliance by trying to integrate a #texttospeech engine into #AOSP

#espeak has been deemed too low quality, and #sherpaTTS too slow. #RHVoice silently fails on our hardware, and I'm running out of options. Does @GrapheneOS have a TTS engine that would be commercially friendly enough for us to push it via OTA update? Or would anyone recommend one?

We work with a sensitive population and lack of a screen reader can make things even more difficult for some.

Someone updated #easyspeak to put on #GrapheneOS and saved me a ton of time. A custom #AOSP based OS I've been working with needed a TTS service for our proprietary app and the devices we have didn't have one. I need to make a few modifications so we don't have to configure it for every device we have, but #FOSS has saved me a significant amount of headache.

#SherpaTTS also worked well, but required too many resources and I didn't have enough vespene gas to justify building more pylons...

@Nagaram on #fdroid there is #SherpaTTS. I use it with #OsmAnd .
I never had the need for other usecases.

Jag har länge kört med #LineageOS tillsammans med #microg för att slippa google på min telefon. Det funkar kanon verkligen, och det är nästan aldrig att en app inte vill funka trots avsaknad av google play tjänster.

Nåt som jag däremot saknat länge är en bra text-till-tal-motor så att jag kan få text uppläst när jag exempelvis kör bil. Fram tills nu. #SherpaTTS. Vilken grej! Jag kan alltså få svensk text genererad till röst LOKALT PÅ MIN TELEFON, och det funkar till och med ganska bra!

#SherpaTTS is an impressive open source speech synthesis engine for #android and a great alternative to Google TTS. Next release should provide installation of multiple languages.
