No way! That's too cool 😁
I've used it a little, although I can't find a list of phones/diphones/phonemes to use with it anywhere.
I had been using mimic, which is a *little* more natural-sounduing, but I couldn't find it in #OpenBSD ports at that moment, and since that was the box I was on right then, I went with the next best thing.
Flite doesn't sound too bad, it's just way too quiet. How do you select a voice? There's not much in the way of online help.

@RL_Dane@fosstodon.org Yeah! I used to be a masters student for Alan Black (voice awb), and I persuaded him to let me record myself. it didn't take much because apparently not too many people want to sit in an airless soundproof both for several hours. It's been a while (6 years?) since I used Flite on my phone, but I know you can download the voice files separately.
