Long overdue, but I've added a blog section to my website: https://divested.dev/pages/blog

It will match my toots to an extent, but may have more detail, as well as feature longer posts too.

Some more work on https://udderance.app

- added 14 more phrase boards after implementing a Open Board Format converter
- made sub menu navigation cleaner by collapsing others
- added support for Escape key to close dialogs/submenus
- generated the remaining 5647 translations, still to be imported
- now available via onion: http://udderaacpou4mku6xptn7ebdzgzw63mtz6jnyafk6jd43xoiu6ymbbqd.onion

More work on https://udderance.app/

- Boards are now machine translated into 35 languages
- Pictograms now work in Safari
- Phrase buttons are now in a dialog view instead of a collapse view for quicker navigation
- Phrase board generation has been overhauled to allow for sub boards as a prerequisite for importing OpenBoardFormat files
- Many homepage improvements: features, compatibility matrix, explanations, etc.

Just added pictogram support for 700+ phrases to Udderance thanks to the https://mulberrysymbols.org/ project.

Was easier than I expected, although my server is having a difficult time serving them up quickly.

I've made some improvements to https://udderance.app

- Support for dynamic phrase board generation and presets
- A board preset cloned from Cboard AAC
- Improved voice list handling
- Support for Sherpa TTS via WASM for more voices and as a fallback when WebSpeech is unavailable (many Linux distros don't seem to setup Speech Dispatcher)
- Tiny additions like a button to clear the history log
- Various bug fixes

Happy Tuesday! 🛸 🐮

Here is another small project I made yesterday: https://udderance.app

Udderance is a text-to-speech (TTS) based augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tool with a focus on simplicity and cross-platform usage.

It is meant to be installed as a PWA (via your browser) on your phone.
