QuantiusBenignus/voluble
Let your GNOME desktop speak to you. Reads your desktop notifications or selected text out-loud with human-like voice using Piper. Uses a local LLM to summarize selected text.
This tool helps you stay on top of your digital life by having your computer speak notifications, selected text, or even summaries of text aloud in a natural-sounding voice. It takes your GNOME desktop notifications or any text you highlight and converts them into spoken audio. Anyone who wants to hear important alerts or review text without constantly looking at their screen would find this useful.
Use this if you want to hear your desktop notifications read aloud with a human-like voice, have selected text spoken, or get a quick summary of text from your GNOME desktop.
Not ideal if you require a full-fledged accessibility screen reader for users with disabilities, as this tool is focused on enhancing general desktop interactions.
