I’m using espeak (from F-Droid) for text to speech, and it’s working great. I’d like an app that does speech to text though, ideally supporting Swedish as well as English for Duolingo purposes, but even just English would be more than I have now.

Googles “speech services” works on GrapheneOS using sandboxed play services.
Until they have added a Permission to restrict InterProcessCommunication (IPC) (Like possible on Linux with Flatpak) this might be too big of a privacy problem though.
Also a lot of Google stuff is basically a proprietary cloud adapter.
Yeah, I don’t know if OP was looking for that. They specified ‘FOSS’ in the title. But I think Google can also do local STT nowadays, I haven’t tried it for quite a while. Sayboard and FUTO work remarkably well. I personally am struggling a bit more with the reverse part: TTS. There isn’t much except for espeak if you want other languages than English (and maybe Russian since there is another project that does a few other languages.) But I skipped on the Google services on my phone.
