- spraak 10y agoI'm curious without any snark, what is the reason people want an Alexa device? I can't find any reason in my life to want one, and see many reasons why I wouldn't
- throwaway2016a 10y agoI like my Alexa devices. But only because I write my own apps for it to allow it to do exactly what I want it to. I use it at least three times a day instead of taking out my phone. My favorite (which is built in and I did not write) is "Alexa, play children's songs" while in my daughter's play room.
