@clin366: I am not sure how removing a language makes speech more accurate. While the language detection in Talkie checks which voices are installed before "using" a language, I don't think having fewer languages improves anything.
- Can you elaborate?
- Is there a problem with a specific voice/language?
- Do you have an example of a website where this is an issue?
You should also be able to disable/remove most voices/languages in your operating system, which would also remove them from Talkie. (Restart computer after in case it doesn't.)
@clin366: there is a similar request in #26, which uses slightly different wording with regards to the automatic voice selection. I am not sure I would "remove" voices completely, but perhaps there is a way to allow/disallow certain voice. It may also affect how preferred voices are configured.
