    It absolutely would be a good thing for a voice assistant.

    But most kickback against voice assistants isn’t the lack of use case, it’s all the other bullshit you have to accept alongside it.

    If I could install a voice assistant that didn’t require a constant internet connection and could work alongside other services, I’d use it.

      I think there’s one on F-droid? Starts with a D. I’m sorry I just woke up and can’t find it.

      Edit: its Dicio, oof tho it doesn’t look offline but it does tick the rest of the boxes.

        Heard some buzz and have been meaning to read up. The speech service has been the primary puzzle piece binding me to proprietary systems, but if it’s time it’s time.
