Google thinks redesigning the Home app and going all in on AI is going to restore peoples' faith in Nest and Google Home. lol, buddy, you took the best performing home ecosystem and have been running it so deep into the ground that nobody trusts you; a fresh coat of AI-poisoned paint is not reassuring *anyone.*

I'm over here ripping out Google devices and slowly buying Home Assistant speakers to replace them because after 15 years in this ecosystem, I'm out.

Calling out the Self-hosting Home Assistant Crew!

Will Home Assistant enable me to keep controlling my 2nd Gen Nest Thermostat from my phone after Google kicks it out of their app?

@tim I'd always prefer an open source solution to a commercial product - that collects your personal data, that can be discontinued any time (see #google #nest for example), and that is usually much more expensive.

It's your choice, of course. But I'd strongly encourage you to reconsider. Keep it local and keep it open.
