Thoughts on Gemalaya — Writing my thoughts here, about the Gemalaya browser and *from* the Gemalaya browser. Running it and setting up my certificate was dead simple, that's important! I wasn't able to build it with pip though, it complained about a circular import (I can give you more details if you want). I find the UI very peculiar, it sure has its own identity and style. I like the "Gemalaya!" popup when selecting a link, hah. The TTS is a killer feature, gemtext is such an accessible...

gemalaya can now do text-to-speech on a whole page in "read-through" mode. Just press "Ctrl+space" on some text and it will read all the text in the page. Press "n" to skip some text and go to the next text item.

In gemalaya you can now choose to show links in grids (instead of vertical lists). Links that are next to each other in gemini pages are grouped and shown in a grid, screenshot attached to this post. [https link]

Text translations are now supported in gemalaya. Right now it's limited to the languages supported by nanotts (edit the config.yaml to change the language priorities). When the text is translated to another language, and if you've activated TTS as well, the text-to-speech conversion will run again for this language. After activating it in the settings, just press 't' to translate, and 'l' to change the target language.

Gemalaya 0.5.2 was released. PicoTTS is now the default TTS engine. PicoTTS is a lightweight offline text-to-speech engine. By working offline and not requiring any remote service, it doesn't violate privacy and the speech synthesis quality is pretty good. There are 2 voices for english in pico, british and american, right now it'll always use the british one. It's bundled in the AppImage so you don't have to install anything else to use the picotts engine. - Add support for the Pico text-to-...

The gemalaya browser can now communicate with the misfin protocol. In the application, just press "Ctrl+m". If you have no identity yet you'll be asked to create one. Press "Ctrl+m" again and it will popup the compose dialog. Right now only the default identity can be used, i'll add an identity import dialog soon. If you browse a gemini page and there's a misfin URL like "misfin://tyler@hashnix.club", opening the link will open a compose dialog. Shoot a message here if you see any issues.

Here's a demo of text-to-speech in gemalaya, reading @Supernova 's post about RSS & the modern web. It's possible to change the playback rate with a keyboard shortcut, that's why the voice's tone changes a bit sometimes :) [https link] TTS demo in gemalaya

I recently started working on a keyboard-driven Gemini browser called Gemalaya, it's mainly written in QML (with Pyside6). Until now i had not found a Gemini browser that could be entirely driven from the keyboard, i wanted to have something similar to how qutebrowser works. Some things like identity management are still missing, that's what will be added in the near future. An AppImage is available. [https link]
