Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Any recommendation for human like voice AI model for conversation AI?
Fast or good, choose one
Mozilla's TTS is a python package installable with pip and uses cpu or gpu resources to render a choice of voices, they mostly sound natural and this is the good. https://github.com/mozilla/TTS
Mycroft's mimic3 is the default voice renderer for the Mycroft project that runs on pi hardware and sounds ok-ish, that is the fast. https://github.com/MycroftAI/mimic3
There are many others but these are the two I use according to if it needs to run on limited hardware or if the cycles fall freely from the sky.

Coqui.ai Is Shutting Down
Coqui-ai was a commercial continuation of Mozilla TTS and STT (https://github.com/mozilla/TTS).
At the time (2018-ish), it was really impressive for on-device voice synthesis (with a quality approaching the Google and Azure cloud-based voice synthesis options) and open source, so a lot of people in the FOSS community were hoping it could be used for a privacy-respecting home assistant, Linux speech synthesis that doesn't suck, etc.
After Mozilla abandoned the project, Coqui continued development and had some really impressive one-shot voice cloning, but pivoted to marketing speech synthesis for game developers. They were probably having trouble monetizing it, and it doesn't surprise me that they shut down.
An equivalent project that's still in active development and doing really well is Piper TTS (https://github.com/rhasspy/piper).

What self hosted app do you wish existed?
An RSS reader that integrates TTS (or TTS)

Audio Converter! How to write one in c/c++?
My solution would be to use a speech synthesis library, maybe eSpeak or Festival, just for ease of use; I think they each provide a library that you could use from C or C++ easily. This one from Mozilla is a more modern system with better-quality output, but it looks like it's set up to run through Python, and I haven't looked at it closely enough to see how much work it would be to get it working for you.

Web Speech API is (still) broken on Linux circa 2023
There is a lot of TTS and SST development going on (https://github.com/mozilla/TTS; https://github.com/mozilla/DeepSpeech; https://github.com/common-voice/common-voice). That is the only way they work: Contributions from the wild.

[P] Balacoon: free-to-use text-to-speech
unfortunately not yet. I need to expand the library of languages and voices. looking around, it seems only Coqui had some traction re Brazilian Portuguese: https://github.com/mozilla/TTS/issues/160. If you foresee wide adoption of the tech for this locale, hit me up with DM

ArXiv Papers as Audiobooks
I'd like to take advantage of high quality TTS models but I'd prefer it to be one I may host myself.
Haven't found the right way yet, I'm considering: https://github.com/MycroftAI/mimic3

- I used mimic3 in a few projects. It's relatively lightweight for a neural tts and gives acceptable results

Ask HN: Cool and Useful Dockerized Apps?
Recently seeing this testing mailserver linked on HN: https://tweedegolf.nl/en/blog/86/introducing-mailcrab
I was reminded of another useful tool, mimic3 by MycroftAI that gives you very nice TTS: https://github.com/MycroftAI/mimic3
So I was wondering: what other useful apps have been containerized for easy setup and great usefulness?
Basically the point of this question is to let people share these, for the benefit of all.

Text to speech
You could also try the successor but they didn't get around implementing the harvard voice yet and we don't like any of the voices that come with it.
