"Google kills Chromecast and replaces it with something that it will also kill and replace in a few years"

I made the mistake of buying Google Homes years ago. They got badly nerfed last year โ€” Google removed the ability to read recipes out loud, which is the main thing I used it for. They also crippled the API so that I can no longer add tasks to Todoist. I'm never buying another Google product.
