1. This should be possible, I think for example if you saved your cloned voice in your account with the same name as your HN handle. I'll add this. This should then work for using any voice for a specific user (just use the right username as the voice's name in 11Labs).
2. No navigation by voice commands sadly - it generates a single audio track. I might be able to insert chapter marks for each comment though, so that it'd be possible to "skip" to the next comment!

I don't have a voice print, can I put something in my profile to get a generic feminine voice? I don't suppose there's a pronouns field

I would think once I introduce the feature above, you could just create a "01HNNWZ0MV43FF" voice with the Voice Lab[0] inside your account (not necessarily duplicating your real voice but just using 11Lab's tool to get a feminine voice). Would that work?
Can I navigate by voice commands, for example if listening while driving?
