troch Firefox-brûker 18331836, 2 jierren lynUsed this for like years to make my novels audiobooks and the desktop browser version of it works pretty well. IMO, the only good TTS voice is the microsoft zira one lol. Works very well for what it is, but the in-built firefox reader also has a TTS function, which is essentially the same thing. I don't discourage people from using this extension though, since it comes in handy when you just need one specific section TTS'd and it's quicker to activate than the in-built one.
An issue I found only on the desktop browser is that the highlighted text would jump ahead of the actual text the extension is reading and it would continue reading the text even if you press 'stop' (only in the case of the jumping highlighted text). Found that if this happens, press 'test' in the settings and the 'stop' after and it'll stop. Kind of annoying though since it happens every so often.
On the other hand, the mobile version of the extension is kinda meh. The issue I mentioned before doesn't seem to exist on mobile but a different one cropped up. On certain sites, or pages within the sites, the TTS randomly decides to change their voice to another. Again, only microsoft zira is listenable so it forces me to just stop the TTS and read manually.
Also, the 'sign in to use premium voices' have never acutally worked for me on mobile. Every time I click 'sign in', nothing appears T_T, lowkey frustrating. And apart from the offline voices, all of the voices don't work when I'm running on data. They do work when I'm using someone elses hotspot tho :(. Frustrating since I usually want to use mobile TTS when I'm out and about.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch lamppost, 7 dagen lynSo happy with this, I use it to read e-books which I open in the browser.
- Wurdearring: 3 fan 5troch kone, 8 dagen lynIt would be great if there were also a context menu option called "Read aloud from here."
With the standard columns, it always pauses briefly at the end of each line. If it would first analyze the entire sentence and then read it aloud in one go, that would be much more pleasant. I would find pauses between sentences much more pleasant! - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch sodar, 16 dagen lynI was having high hopes at first, but then I learned it doesn't let you use the different voices for TTS you may have installed on Windows, for example. I WANT TO LISTEN TO ANDREW'S VOICE DAMMIT (seriously, his TTS voice is really nice on the ears, you'll find it in Narrator settings as a "Natural" voice)

- Wurdearring: 2 fan 5troch BoxFolve, 21 dagen lynKeeps skipping sentences - Very annoying. The standard voice sound like a choking tin frog. The AI voices are substantially better. But why is it skipping sentences?
- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Didactic Traveller, ien moanne lynJust want to counter the people rating one star and saying there's only awful voices. There are really good ones, particularly supertonic. Just download them in the settings and activate them. Seriously, try opening the settings before review bombing.
Moreover, the native PDF support is quite good. PDFs can cause trouble with this sort of software, yet it works great here. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch d4nchq, ien moanne lynIt's awesome, you can use different voices for TTS and can setup useful shortcut to run it.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Zero, ien moanne lynThis extension was great! I have problems seeing font on dark websites because there isn't a light mode toggle on some of them. So, I use to use this to read what was posted. However, I was going to use it again today, it now asks for permission for all open url data when before it just did what it was meant to do. No thank you to that. It'd be great if it returned back to what it originally did.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Innokenty Shuvalov, ien moanne lynwhat's wrong with this voice? hahaha it's is so bad, this is just hilarious!
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Gio, ien moanne lynHoly terrible, dont bother the voice sounds like a 90 year old smoker, how about we fix that.

- Wurdearring: 4 fan 5troch Wizsensei, 2 moannen lynVery good. Only problem when i try in normal page it very slow loading or sometimes doesnt load at all. To fix this i open extension options and click test button.When test sound plays(which is very fast) then extension becames responsive and i can play other page i want without waiting or problem.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Mel, 2 moannen lynThe voice volume was so low I could not understand what it was reading. It was so low because the voice sound was coming through my Mac Mini M4 built in speakers and I was about 15 feet distant. There is no apparent means of choosing where the sound output goes.
