Hi @ReimuNotMoe ! This PR addresses issue #279 and similar setup confusion discussed in #207. Currently, new users struggle with ydotoold setup - the README says it "usually requires root" but doesn't explain the proper user-level approach. This leads to 15+ different (often insecure) solutions scattered in issue comments. What this adds:
Provides one secure setup method instead of fragmented approaches. This should cut down on permission-related support issues. I developed this setup for my voice automation project (https://github.com/AshBuk/speak-to-ai) and it's been working reliably - now contributing it back, may help other users! |
