Google nest hub outage shows why not everything should relay on Internet connection
People on this subreddit aren't angry enough about things like basic alarms not going off or not seeing your photos on the screen when the internet connection goes down or when Google has an outage.
All I see is, "Well, I missed my alarm, but... it happens; just wait it out till they fix it."
Do you really need an internet connection for remembering photos, calendar events, reminders, alarms, and basic preset voice commands on the device locally?
That's why I left the google ecosystem I had enough of massive data collection and solutions that require someone else's computer and an internet connection.
