I use Linux Mint 21.1. I make considerable typing errors when I write but I don’t see them, so it would be helpful if the machine could read out loud my writings back to me. How can I get this to happen?

I would really prefer to not have to go through an extensive set of disability accommodation steps every single time nor hear the computer tell me everything that is happening on the screen, but I will do it if necessary. I’m hoping there’s an app or a LibreOffice button I can push to read only my selected text.

Here’s an example of the accessibility screen reader not being helpful for me: https://imgur.com/7QvU9y4

Edit:

So at the advice of @joneskind@lemmy.world, I searched for apps using “text-to-speech” and found an app in the software manager called VoiceGen that seems helpful!
