I just found this.
This is huge!
As a german, I use thorsten medium as he simply made the best dataset.
Mixing english with german, speaking numbers, single letters, pausing without a “.” but just a linebreak, all those can be essential.
And… it is nearly perfect! And all local!
This is crazy!
eSpeak can finally go to rest!
How do I apply these voices, so apps use it?
This is amazing! If you are looking for US EN and use a phone with arm64 I can recommend sherpa-onnx-1.10.27-arm64-v8a-en-tts-vits-piper-en_US-kristin-medium and sherpa-onnx-1.10.27-arm64-v8a-en-tts-vits-piper-en_US-norman-medium
These names are a joke hahaha
You are clearly not the target audience then. There is a lot of extremely useful info in those model names.
I there a way to install multiple languages? I, for example, would like to install both English and German so that I can switch between them depending on the language of the text.
Might want to link to the official page for a bit more context
Can I install it via F-Droid?
It is FOSS, and the build instructions are here

Those guys are incredibly active, look at this!

(And no, not on F-Droid, if you look at the crazy amount of packages that makes sense)
that stupid huge amount of packages is honestly a pretty big UX issue, at least personally that just makes me chuckle at their optimism and close the page as every bit of energy i had vaporizes from the thought of figuring out what to download.
Just scroll down until the page is fully loaded and use the search function.
