“Apple has a history of making home products, like both HomeKit and the Home App itself, and also HomePods. Both of those, Apple kind of puts something out there and then neglects it for years. It just withers and dies of neglect because Apple just can't be bothered to do anything to improve it. Why would this be any different?”

I think the slowness is actually slightly more tolerable for a thing that you're not taking out of your pocket or your phone. Because it's ambient, you can just kind of shout it. And if it takes a little while, as long as I Have the confirmation, I mean, I do this with my like Google Home thing. As long as I Have the confirmation that says, okay, timer is set for 20 minutes starting now. Like as long as I Have that within a few seconds, yeah, it is slow, but I'm okay with it. Whereas when I do it on my phone and I'm watching those stupid little white little leafy things rotate in a circle, I'm like, come on, come on, come on. So maybe the speed will be more tolerable. And in terms of speed, like, what does the, what does the big home pod have? I Have some like ancient watch chip in it or something.
