You can just upload a mp3 / wav / ogg and nostr:nprofile1qqszaqx80w9eg8uf39l527h8znumq0jcxdav2h0kdgwy08e3p87wfrgpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hszrnhwden5te0dehhxtnvdakz7qgawaehxw309ahx7um5wghxy6t5vdhkjmn9wgh8xmmrd9skctcke6zfw will automatically turn it into a podcast.

I was planning to do the audio book a bit later, this isn't the final version yet, would be happy to hear yours tho!

Hah, thanks for the tip. But I am not sure I am seeing how to upload on castr.me. is it in an app form I should first download? The web version just asked for my npub.

Gosh, haha, now I am feeling pretty self conscious... My recording is raw and unpolished of a text I am reading for the first time but will share.

It depends on when you are recording it I will either wait for your audio or just keep reading. If I am not listening to information often reading it outloud strengthens my comprehension. That obviously requires more energy and time on my end since I need to be stationery vs. driving, walking and getting other stuff done. :)

It just fetches any profile and displays all the uploaded audio or video files as a podcast feed.

So just post on primal or whatever client and it'll automagically work.

Yeah, doing "actually good" audio book recordings is a pain in the ass... So no pressure!

I'll probably get to a point where I'll do it in half a year.

Idk, maybe earlier if enough people bug me about it.

Oh, I also made a text to speech friendly PDF that might work for you, get it at towardsliberty.com/pop

OMG 🤣 def not gonna wanna wait half a year...

Would love to try the text to speech but I don't know how to make that work. You are the grapheneos expert... It seems that much of what's available on Android is not automatically on graphene. Like I can't even speech to text text messages. (I get voice input is unavailable right now when I try) And I don't see any functions in the text to speech pdf file of yours.

On zapstore you can get Sherpa, that's a text to speech engine, and voca, that's a reader app that uses the engine. Voca is very early development so its not yet great. There is @voice app too, but that's closed source and you need to install Aurora Store to get it.

The TTS PDF is just a regular PDF but without page numbers and page titles so it makes listening better.
