    Unfortunately google is now a massive juggernaut that has 20+ layers before you can ship anything, and thats bled out to the users of their services. I wish we had better alternatives. In fact, I now just focus on shipping a PWA.

    Btw thanks to the author. I got Conversations to work with Micro (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;micro.mu" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;micro.mu), the personal assistant I&#x27;m building. Its a nice XMPP client. Now just need to figure out how to do encryption for queries going into the model itself.
