Extension summary
Other text to speech extensions are bloated, slow, and often critically flawed- they're unable to read out more than around 250 characters at a time without cutting out! Not to mention the shady permissions they require.
Selection Reader is simple, fast, and can read out near-unlimited text at once. Just select the text and right click!
