Reddit text to speech generator

A python gui program to generate reddit text to speech videos from the id of any post.

Current functionality

• Generate videos for subs based on comments,(askreddit) so reading individual comments.
• Generate videos for subs with longer posts,(entitledparents), so slicing the post into multiple frames to fit the text.
• Easy login, all you need to do, is run main.py, you will get a link; go to the link and click allow; Thats it! the credentials are written to a json file so you dont need to repeat this step as long as the token.json file is there.
• Optional customizability options to change the font, backdrop, position of text on the screen
