Can we have an open source Google Assistant alternative? (social.fossware.space)

What if we use the Google Speech utility to make it work?

I'm tired of apps not integrating themselves with Assistant.

I use Microsoft To-do for work. And I have a Windows device so it's extremely convenient for me since it syncs it.

But when I ask Google to add a task, it won't do that. (Refer to the attached image.) It will only add tasks or reminders to its own shitty Tasks app.

So, I want to be able to automate my work by having some service that can do this, and doesn't have to depend on Assistant or the devs to add Assistant compatibility...

Phew, you shocked me there for a moment. I have an eye on that project for a couple years already and I think it's very promising. I wanted to buy the Mark 1 back in the day, because it looks so cute, but I was too late.

Yeah I think I was confusing the Mark II with Mycroft as a whole

But it looks like the Mark III is going to be a thing
