With the news that they are shutting down the Google assistant smart displays, the best thing you can do now is just not have smart devices like these in your house or just use Home assistant. They're just waiting to go to the landfill.

They're cutting off software updates for third party displays. Their own displays will continue to be supported... for now.

Imagine being one of the companies impacted by this. It becomes a lesson in not partnering with Google.

Yeah... as much as I wouldn't mind doing more "smart home" stuff, I absolutely won't as I don't trust anything to be supported for a decade or more, which is where I consider home stuff should be.

Generally speaking, I no longer buy any device that requires a smartphone app or otherwise not built into the device itself.
