Great work! Is this open source?

Hello PH! I am super excited to launch ReadMo for Web πŸŽ‰ An immersive reader for articles and blog posts with an integrated audio player for a pleasant reading and listening experience 🎧 ReadMo is a browser extension for Chromium-based browsers (Chrome, Brave, Edge etc.). Initially I built it for myself because I am a savvy reader but I often get tired eyes and with this I could digest a lot more content faster πŸ€“ Soon I realized I wanted to make it public and today is already launch day 🎊 🀝 The best part is that ReadMo can integrate with YOUR BLOG or site links allowing your readers to read articles with it. Furthermore, you can customize ReadMo's theme and add your logo or avatar at the end of every article πŸ’… Please check out the theme generator at https://readmo.app/#connect and share your themes with a screenshot on Twitter mentioning @readmoapp – I will RT themes all day long πŸ˜„ ❀️ The extension is going to be free for a while and probably I'll switch to freemium later on. Take note of this discount code to get a 50% in the future: PH50 Final PRO-tip, if you install the extension in Microsoft Edge you get natural voices for free too! Natural voices will come to other browsers soon πŸ”₯

@giuseppegurgone congrats on the launch! Really like what you've built here! Two quick feature suggestions: export voice recording as a file and/or allow me to subscribe to articles I want to listen to via an OPML feed that I can import into my podcatcher...!
Giuseppe
Thank you Chris those are great suggestions! I would want those for myself and will try to make it happen :)

@giuseppegurgone also, what about allowing the selection of custom Google Fonts for themes?

How are you better than speechify and other apps from this category available on the market? (Except for customization features you've showcased)
Giuseppe
hi Alexa! If I remember correctly, Speechify free has only a few English voices which is a bummer if you want to read an article in another language. Other services are indeed similar, and my primary goal is simply to open this extension that I built for myself to others so that it can be connected to personal blogs. I am exploring ways to do text to speech in the browser with pre-trained machine learning models and provide high quality voices. If that works out potentially you could even train a model with your voice samples and then use it to read articles.
