Yeah. You're referring to Mozilla Common Voice ( https://commonvoice.mozilla.org )

I believe that The HomeAssistant voice assistant uses it in a couple of ways, some non-obvious, ie not just for TTS. From memory, part of their voice recognition training comes from taking CommonVoice samples and adding all kinds of noise and distortion to them that would likely also happen in the real world (background noises, being muffled by objects etc), and then training on those distorted samples.

I contribute occasionally. There's an app on Fdroid that makes it quick and easy.

It's a great project and one I wish Mozilla would focus more on instead of all the other junk.

Went to see this Sound (/experience?) installation ZYX, Anna Barham https://www.mattsgallery.org/exhibitions/zyxv. The actual experience is an almost hallucinatory journey for 15 minutes.
I also appreciate the ideas behind the misunderstanding of speech to text synthesis and text as medium which changes you similar to Stiegler’s (taken from Aristotle) Pharmakon of the techne of writing.

Голосовой агент — это не чатбот с телефоном: 40 часов экономии и $100, сожженные на ботах

Я однажды примерно за сутки сжег около $100 на голосовом агенте. Не на большом запуске. Не на огромной базе. Не на хитрой рекламной кампании. Просто на небольшом пуле холодных контактов, где агент периодически попадал на voicemail, IVR, секретарей и других ботов. В какой-то момент два не очень умных голосовых процесса могли довольно долго вежливо говорить друг другу что-то в духе:
