Text to Speech Wikipedia articles on Youtube (youtu.be)

This is worse than having your own text to speech read Wikipedia.
- You can't select the voice or control the speaking rate.
- You can't follow links or references in the article, and this is Wikipedia the home of heavily linked and referenced articles
- You can't skip ahead to a section of interest
- You can't navigate backwards and forwards as you normally would do by words or headings
It adds nothing to anyone who already has text to speech available to them. If you have a computer capable of playing Youtube videos you have one capable of text to speech.

We can read a lot faster using screen readers, I heard a couple of seconds and noped out of there.
This might be helpful to those with dyslexia but it’s not for me.
