I've run out of patience with the Pixel Tablet as a smart hub
www.androidauthority.com
One of the selling points of the Pixel Tablet is its ability to double as an Assistant speaker and smart hub. It failed me at both of those.

A little eye-opening to read about the issues experienced. Glad I wasn’t an early adopter in this case.

    My tin-foil hat conspiracy theory is that they realized they were wasting to much compute power running all the Assistant Smarts, so they’ve decided to lobotomize it a little bit more each day to cut costs.
    That’s the only way I can explain it getting dumber and more broken as time passes by.
