👋 Hi everyone! I'm the solo developer behind PastePlay. The idea came from a simple frustration: I read documentation, articles, emails, and research all day, and every text-to-speech tool I tried interrupted my workflow. I had to copy, paste, open another app, use old legacy platforms or import a document just to listen. So I built PastePlay. The goal wasn't to build another text-to-speech app—it was to make listening feel as fast and natural as using a keyboard shortcut. With PastePlay you can: • Highlight text anywhere • Press one hotkey • Instantly start listening • Keep working while audio continues in the background This is the first public release, and I'd genuinely love your feedback. What feels great? What's missing? What would make you use this every day? Thanks for checking it out—I really appreciate every comment, bug report, and suggestion. 🚀
