Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Yeah, so I dug into it, and it's definitely not offline. It uses gtts, which ultimately makes calls to google.com for the tts. You can track it down yourself, but you'll eventually end up here, which talks about how to change the google host name in case it's blocked.
I'm not sure why you believe not needing an API key means it isn't calling a Google API, especially in this case where it clearly states it's using an unofficial channel - which is the same trick third party YouTube clients use to access YouTube videos without using API keys.
