Hi Petro. With deepest respect, you do seem to be a bit biased on this matter - and a Moderator should n’t be - though I fully respect your right to have your own viewpoint. But so also should we respect others’ right to have their viewpoint.
“simply because a few people didn’t get to decide on the word.” is inappropriate - and likely wrong in most cases.
Personally, I’d never choose or accept “Ok Nabu” as my wake word. Nothing wrong with Nabu Casa - far from - but it just does n’t ring well.
How about “Ha Ha” for the Home Assistant wake word? … Should raise a smile maybe…
I’m not bias at all. I couldn’t care less what the wake word is, which is why I find it ridiculous that people are offended by the current choice. It’s even more mind-bending that there’s an expectation that it’s chosen by the community and not the person/entity driving the development (this is how Open Source works).
I just wanted to chime in and say I also don’t care what the wake word is. Yes of course we all want choice, but this is an open-source and non-profit project, and these things take time. Okay Nabu seems to work very well, and I think we should accept that as the first step. I’d rather have something that works well than to ditch it for something worse, regardless of some idealistic notion of avoiding the mere mention of the company behind the project.
