i see a lot of low ratings because of the voice options. GO TO PIPER VOICES (Experimental)
there are so many good voices to install. Cori and Jenny_Dioco are the best IMO

Thank you for the very nice add-on. it's very useful. But one thing as a sorry point is that the shortcut key is not editable for now. I have set it in the past, and it has been kept but it doesn't function. I can't find any buttons like 'Edit' despite that I can see the list of shortcut keys. Further, the shortcut key also doesn't work now(I have to 'click' the icon). Due to the settings of the FIrefox's security?

p.s. It seems like shortcut keys conflict among some add-ons in my choices. It can be resolved with the editor for the shortcut key if it works.

Good 1: It detects text automatically.
Good 2: It highlights the sentence it's reading.
Problem 1: It's in a popup, instead of highlighting directly on the website.
Problem 2: Voices are trash for today's standards.

First problem is not a big deal, but the second problem is a deal breaker, with today's AI technology. Could it be possible to use Edge's AI voices? There's an addon that does that, but Read Aloud is a more advanced addon, really, the voices are the only real problem.

En español -que es la que he probado con varias voces- es infumable, apenas se entiende nada.

Read Aloud worked great for a few years but now it does not work. The spinner comes up and words get highlighted but that is all that happens.

I'm not sure how you screw up this plugin so badly. It use to work great, now it sounds terrible! I can barely understand what the robotic voice says and the best part is that you can't change it because there are about 2 million options in the drop-down and it takes 5 minutes to load after clicking on it.

It sounds like 2012 random robots on the internet. Terrible sound and ancient technology

my suggestion is to use piper voices ... its better for compreension...

First time user of the Read Aloud text to speech reader -- I am very impressed. I used the app to read a technical article and found the accuracy excellent. I also found the voice tone and intonation made for an exceptionally good listener experience. This is a great app and congratulations to its developers. Thank you!

An excellent way to get good TTS voices for Firefox. For the flatpak version I had to use flatseal to add .local/share/piper to the Persistent -> Files section to allow it to save the Piper voices.

It's mostly great- easy to start, good customizability. Using google voices is really really nice. The only really annoying thing is I have to go into the settings to change the speed. I frequently find something going too slow or too fast for my liking, and if I could adjust that on the fly, instant 5 stars.

A screen reader that only works on some sites, and not others, has limited usefulness. Would be better if it could run here, but its options don't even show the "Run on sites with restrictions" option as it ought to.

I love this add-on so far. It really helps with my college courses, especially since the long texts I need to read get tiring from reading on my own. There are some issues with some pronunciation of words or speaking out the links/references, but nothing that fully interfere with what I need to read.

Very excellent plugin. I wonder if it would be possible to add hover icons to Android Firefox, AND it would make it easier to use!
