    maybe last you tried it was over 6 months ago, maybe you’re using the old google assistant, or idk, but it definitely works for me

      Everything I’ve read says Gemini is like 10x worse than Google Assistant.

      Heh, I’ve actually moved away from using Google Home stuff because it’s shoving Gemini down my throat and it’s been worse in the last six months than it was a year ago.

    Using Home Assistant with Qwen locally. It functions better than any version of Google Home I’ve had. Understands me without having to think about how I say things. Can ask it for one or multiple things at the same time. Can even make it so that it pretends to be Santa Claus while responding. My wife was ecstatic when she heard the Ho-ho-ho while asking to turn the coffee machine on on Christmas.
