Came across it while looking into Sendspin. Has anyone set it up? How is it? Use it? Better than Jellyfin?

Are you planning to use Alexa speakers with their stock firmware for you LLM voice assistant?

First I'll use them for music assistant. If I end up making some voice satellites, I'll have to see what the audio quality is like before ditching the Alexa speakers.

I don't believe anybody has found a way to use non-stock firmware. I'd love to jailbreak them if I could

I see. I ditched my Google Home speakers by replacing them with Home Assistant Voice speakers. They're not good for music but the mics and speaker are pretty good for voice. Pretty easy to setup fully-offline agent with a local LLM with those.
