PiperTTS support
Would be awesome if this project supported Piper, for local custom voices
Yeah I would love this too!
oh, yeah. I already added Piper, however there are some bugs I need to get out before adding it to the list of voices.
You can try it out still, manually.

Kokoro seems better than Piper these days, and if you need something fast, I'd suggest espeak:

Again, while I've added support for them, I've not added them to the menu as an option. You have to enable them via the menu
Oh great, it would be great if we can specify a piper server (I would like to host piper on a local server)
I have it built into Social Stream Ninja already, so no server is needed.
If you are going to run your own server, I already have an option to let you grab messages for your server:
This POST end point , point it at your TTS server, and all the data will be provided to it. You'll just need to map the values to the TTS read out.
