It's my understanding that yes, that is an option but i'm in the camp that any step i make at this point will be towards being as cloudless and local as possible with services like this. I agree that i'd trust them over the others but i don't want to have to pick between a poor user experience, a large hardware cost, or trusting SOME company.
I've made automation for all of my most commonly said phrases and when using those it works but that limits it to only the things i've already thought to key in. Not very ideal but it works well enough.
Fair enough. I'm not far behind you on that front. Too many rugpulls and enshittification experiences to trust cloud services very far.
