    No Alexa here for more reasons than just being a voice assistant.

    None of them would particularly useful to me even if I didn’t hate them, due to a lot of hearing loss. Real voices are hard enough and the ones from a speaker are worse. Anything from a PA system is unintelligible.

    Most things we have automated with sensors, schedules and buttons. Not much else to be done that can’t be done with a few seconds of infrequent manual input, or shortcut software button on device.

    I think I’m dead set on this. It’s nice to see others getting along, but I’ll never want it.
