Google and Amazon (Alexa) have proven to be bad integration partners IME.

I replaced my Nest 2 years ago because Google had shut down APIs allowing me to interact with it.

Amazon continues to remove functionality from the Alexa APIs. Most recently, they've made it more difficult to add items to a "list" if that list is from an integrated app (in my case, AnyList).

I long for the days when these companies were eager for devs to integrate with their products and were actually making it easier to do so, rather than being silently hostile to their partners and customers.
