[conda](https://docs.conda.io/projects/conda/) reports 7.5k GitHub stars, 2.2k forks, and 672 open issues, last pushed Jul 11, 2026. [CosyVoice](https://funaudiollm.github.io/cosyvoice3) has 22k stars, 2.5k forks, and 767 open issues, last pushed May 25, 2026. Figures are from public GitHub metadata via [conda's repository](https://github.com/conda/conda) and [CosyVoice's repository](https://github.com/FunAudioLLM/CosyVoice). | | [conda](/tools/conda-conda.md) | [CosyVoice](/tools/funaudiollm-cosyvoice.md) | | --- | --- | --- | | Tagline | A system-level, binary package and environment manager running on all major operating systems and platforms. | Multi-lingual large voice generation model with full-stack abilities for inference, training and deployment. | | Stars | 7,465 | 22,089 | | Forks | 2,198 | 2,545 | | Open issues | 672 | 767 | | Language | Python | Python | | Adopt for | - | CosyVoice is a Python-based multi-lingual large voice generation model.
