is your voice part of your threat model?

Maybe, but if you’re burning codes in this scenario, you’ve got bigger problems to solve.

I would suggest investigating how much effort it would take to alter your voice. Is it possible to do it live, or does it take post processing? There's no harm in doing it unless you meet up with internet people in the real world. Even then it may not really be an issue.
I've felt the same about parsing my comments via an AI because, using stylometry, a small sample of your comments are enough to de-anonymize all of your online accounts. It ultimately required too much effort and friction, plus I have decades of comments already out there so whatevs. I'm not here to fuck spiders.

Yes, to a degree. In my experience a lot of attackers will call phones and wait for you to say something to get a model of your voice.
When I answer a phone number I do not recognize, I don't say "Hello" anymore. Instead I remain quiet for 10 seconds. If its a poorly made bot trying to scrape my voice, usually it hangs up within that time.
I am also more open to letting everything I don't recognize ring through to my voice mail which uses the default response without my voice since these types of attacks started.
For peertube etc, I am unsure what the best solution is, but would be interested in what people here suggest!

I am unaware, and I'm just here to ask what is a threat model?

A list of threats most likely to occur basically. It can differ between people as well.
Ex: someone living in New York City wouldn't prioritize hiding their location as much as somebody living in a 1000-person small town.

TL;DR What you want to protect and who you want to protect it from in terms of both security AND privacy (which are differentiated in the previous section: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/basics/why-privacy-matters/#what-is-privacy)

I really wouldn't mind talking like Alastair from Hazbin Hotel (a transatlantic accent I think it's called?) but I'd need to work it into educational content

You're never going to use your conversational voice in a video or public speaking. You don't even do it when you interact with people in public.

Or pick up a Roland VT-3!

Imo you shouldn't let anyone silence your voice
