How can we get the party started for a Monero social media site to bond a couple of anonymous bros?

Well maybe Big Tech bashing, but with an educational twist.

This site LifeHacker has half-hearted criticism of Google, but the site itself uses Google analytics and the author uses Gmail. Other than the obvious, we turn it into an educational opportunity to have members of the community tell him all the choices there are to DeGoogle your life.

Who knows? It would be pretty cool if we got a response from the author, and it mentioned Monero.

do you give the talk remotely via type-to-talk audio? I think you should find a different voice than the one used on MoneroTalk which is really hard to listen to. I know there's few open source ones, let me know if you find any good ones. The default linux one in the package manger is horrible

Yes it will be text-to-speech again. I will try another voice. Thanks for the feedback.

for FOSS: https://github.com/voicepaw/so-vits-svc-fork alternatively https://elevenlabs.io/

The first one isn't text to speech and the second is not FOSS. If you have a good FOSS TTS that has examples of what the voices sound like, I would like to be linked to it :)

Oh right, sorry. You need a whole damn lab setup that combines the Foss one with another Foss tts. Tutorial, shouldn't take too much compute, the more tricky part is getting the right voice model. I'd recommend a gawr gura one ;)
