Hey everyone! I’m diving into the world of local voice control for my Home Assistant setup, and I’m curious to hear your experiences and recommendations. I’ve been exploring various options like ESP32 satellites, Whisper, Piper, and Rhasspy, but I’m not sure which one would be the most reliable and future-proof for 2026.
I have a 3D printer at my disposal, so creating custom hardware isn’t out of the question, but I’m leaning towards finding a solution that balances ease of use with robust functionality. Stability is key for me, as I want this system to handle my daily routines without hiccups.
Has anyone found a setup that works exceptionally well? I’m particularly interested in low-maintenance solutions that don’t require constant tweaking. Any insights or success stories would be invaluable! Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.
