For those of us still impatiently waiting, what is your experience so far with “Home Assistant Voice Preview Edition”?

—- I ordered just 2 hours in but the vendor I used sold out in 21 minutes. I just found out I also missed the restock, so hopefully some time next month.

I use Siri for this kinda thing and it is 100% accurate for setting lights and timers. Sometimes I just want to talk instead of pressing phone buttons or switches, it can save me from getting out of bed. Definitely not a necessity though.

    I also have excellent results with Siri. While I have it require a click before listening, I’m always wearing my watch so it’s still pretty convenient.

    But I have to admit the always listening part is kind of nice. It started off innocently enough : hey my thermostat can do Alexa. Then we discovered the intercom feature and ended up with one in every room
