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.

Weird A.I. Yankovic, a cursed deep dive into the world of voice cloning
I doubt it's currently actually "the best open source text to speech", but the answer I came up with when throwing a couple of hours at the problem some months ago was "Silero" [0, 1].
Following the "standalone" guide [2], it was pretty trivial to make the model render my sample text in about 100 English "voices" (many of which were similar to each other, and in varying quality). Sampling those, I got about 10 that were pretty "good". And maybe 6 that were the "best ones" (pretty natural, not annoying to listen to).
IIRC the license was free for noncommercial use only. I'm not sure exactly "how open source" they are, but it was simple to install the dependencies and write the basic Python to try it out; I had to write a for loop to try all the voices like I wanted. I ended using something else for the project for other reasons, but this could still be fairly good backup option for some use cases IMO.

Messing around with a TTS extension
Glados was the first experiment. I moved on to silero afterwards: https://github.com/snakers4/silero-models

Ask HN: Open-source video transcribing software?
Some months ago I tried the Silero Models: https://github.com/snakers4/silero-models
With the audio sources I had, in English, the transcription had many mistakes. The good side is that installing and running the software worked as described in their documentation, so maybe it’s worth giving it a try by yourself.
