“Systemd’s Nuts” how did I never think of this before.
Well good thing it has age verification because this conversation is getting adult
This is just a bad text-to-speech reading of a Medium blog post.
Edit: I see the author has satire in the list of tags, so perhaps if I’d stuck with it longer I’d find it’s a joke…?
Thanks for the feedback. I’m the author of the medium blog post too.
If you have any tips on where to find a better free voice, I’m all ears. I haven’t tried chatterbox yet, that one might do it.
It could also be that the “direct blog post to video” format doesn’t cut it. But I’m still experimenting with ways to generate effective multimedia out of my content.
Edit: Regarding “satire”, that doesn’t apply to this blog post in particular. But I did add some jokes here and there to keep the dry topic going.
Either read it yourself or leave it as a blog. No one wants to listen to this
I don’t think having a textual article auto-scrolled and voiced adds anything at all, and people who do want that can do it themselves, and have it set to their choice of accent, speed, etc.
Video links tend to do worse than text links on Lemmy, so you’d probably have been better off all round just posting your original blog post.
Side benefit is that everyone who prefers reading text, can read text, and everyone who wants to hear a robot read it, can have their own robot do that.
Its not the voice thats the issue, to me any video that uses TTS is low quality and effort.
I want to hear and see the speakers feelings about a subject they love to talk about.
