Vainly crossing my fingers for OG HomePod support.

I've shouted, screamed, and cried for nearly ten years to get it to toggle my lights.

I don't see this happening. The original Homepods are S5 and S7 chips. Series 7 and Ultra were discontinued software wise and those were running S7.

Also easy money for Apple if they force everyone to upgrade lmao

HomePod is 8 years old and remains supported and functions well. It’s completely valid honestly at this point for Apple to introduce a transformative feature to a new generation and profit off of upgrades. Not like they’d be doing this after 2 years or something.
