Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Home assistant is working on a voice assistant but it’s not done yet. They’re supposed to announce progress on a YouTube live stream on the 12th.
October 12th? Wow that is great news!
From the release notes for October:
Live stream link is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzgYYkOrnhQ
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
Will be curious to see if they ever add transient timers for commands. Google will happily turn off the lights in 5 minutes as a command. In Home Assistant I'd have to go in, create a timer helper, add the light to turn off....
I can imagine eventually but I don't think that'll be their prioritized focus for a bit, cause it doesn't seem like it'd have a massive useage case

I've been using it for the last month and set it as the default for my phone. Never really used google assistant but HA one works great for controlling lights, shopping lists and reminders (all when connected to home WiFi obviously).
