Föderation EN Do 14.11.2024 16:18:56 Hello. This is my #Introduction. I have been working with Web technologies since 1992. I have co-founded two browser companies, Opera Software and Vivaldi Technologies. I was CEO at Opera and I am CEO at Vivaldi. I am a strong proponent of open standards. I believe in building feature rich products that can be adapted to the needs of users without collecting information about usage. I believe no company has the right to profile their users. #Vivaldi #browser #Web #surveillance #SurveillanceCapitalism #Windows #macos #Linux #Android #ios (Medien: 1) |

Föderation EN Do 14.11.2024 16:26:51 @jon Hi Jon, nice to meet you. I am an English-Polish translator, have been working in the field for 30 years, 2/3 of it using CAT (Computer Aided Translation) software. I respect your approach to open standards, Vivaldi has been my browser of choice for quite a long time, it quickly replaced Firefox which I long considered untouchable and indispensable. Hope you'll be able to bear the open standards flag for many years to come. |

Föderation EN Do 14.11.2024 19:15:02 @sajalghosh , thank you for your kind words. What do you mean by TTS? |
Föderation EN Do 14.11.2024 19:36:21 @jon @sajalghosh Common usage is "Text to speech", with STT being "Speech to text" and so on. |
Föderation EN Fr 15.11.2024 06:17:01 Hi @jon Sorry for not clarifying. I love the "Read Aloud" feature of MS Edge. The voice sounds more natural than any other free "Text to Speech" engines. I particularly love this feature because as a non-native English speaker, it helps me read faster and make me feel more comfortable. Reading newspapers, long articles / blogs is much more comfortable with this feature. In addition, combined with and ePub add on, I also read ebooks with MS Edge. (Medien: 1) |
