now that I don’t have access to Apple Music anymore, 90% of my home pod use is checking the time, setting timers, and asking what time the baseball game starts
I should really look into an open source equivalent to do basic stuff like that without giving all my data to Apple
I do still want to figure out how to set up a connection to my Plex server for music, but until then, I’m happy enough just casting from my phone or iPad to a Bluetooth speaker. I do must be able to just start playing specific music while cooking though
What I want is an egg timer, really. Like with the windup spring and ticking, and bell. I had a ladybug that did it, but cranked it too hard one day and broke it.
Maybe we can get a single purpose digital timer to replace using phones to make named timers idk
Timers for everything. Even if I’m standing literally in front of it, it gets a timer

I am really happy with my digital timers from thermoworks. They are expensive but I think worth it, I use them for me and my kid all the time
