Perhaps off topic, not sure, but does anyone have opinions on the easiest way to add bilingual TTS? I am trying to make Mandarin language learning decks and having free automated TTS would be very useful.

I've tried out AwesomeTTS but found it a bit too complicated. Just want to automatically add TTS with one click ideally.

That appears to be a subscription service. Surely there must be something using piper or another offline TTS program that works for free?
