Apple wins for its highlighted texts to speech to talk in their
software. Windows 10's Narrator sucks. It doesn't even let you highlight
texts to speak outloud. :( Apple made it SO easy in macOS and iOS. I still
haven't found any offline (no Internet) free third party apps that can
do it easily and simple. Apple wins this part for me. :)
