@stroughtonsmith - the future is so much weirder than 10 year old me expected.

I wonder how this compares to Claude Code, both in user experience and price.

On day 4 of App Store review, I started writing folk songs. #macOS #iOS #indiedev

Lyrics by me, performed by Suno in a folk-comedy-acoustic style. Speaklone - local voice synthesis for Mac (hopefully): (speaklone.com)

Oh look at that button. I'm just clicking that to get things off the ground. Well done. Thanks.

@codedbydan setting down roots here has been on my todo list for a long time. Nice to meet you.

I'm not sure the best way to get indie #iOS #mlx #ml noticed on Mastodon. I've horribly neglected the platform, even though so many of my dev friends and heroes (looking at you @atpfm ) wisely came here long ago.

Anyone want fully native, Swift / MLX - professional text to speech, including voices that read how you tell them (ex: shy, but determined), voice characters you create by describing, or cloning with a 3+ second sample. Fully local, private, and fast, on macOS! https://speaklone.com

Thanks to mlx-audio and qwen3-tts for their amazing work. It was a joy to bring it to native macOS.
