And of course for basic things Siri can do the same stuff, but she constantly misunderstands me and does things I didn't ask for. Not to mention she won't play from YouTube or really anything besides Apple Music, and for general questions, Google Assistant is significantly smarter and gives way better answers. Any one who actually uses Siri should be very familiar with her replying to 90% of your questions with "here's what I found on the web"
As for homekit stuff, you can get a hoobs box and use pretty much anything you want to without issue. I have tons of stuff setup in my Home app and it works perfectly. I didn't have a great user experience with managing Alexa plus didn't they announce last year that they were cutting back on that team?

Just curious what are you asking Siri to do that Siri just can't do? And what items are you looking for that aren't homekit enabled? I feel like these arguments are so overspoken.
It's not that items for HomeKit don't exist. It's that I have to go out of my way to find items specifically made for HomeKit, as opposed to Google Assistant and Alexa pretty much being compatible/enabled by default on any kind of smart device.

I use Siri mostly for turning off lights and have a million alarms set to remind of where my kids need to be at all hours of every day. We also play music from pandora. None of this ever gives us issues. I guess it works for us. I never used Alexa or google, so I don't really have anything to compare it to.

You should consider looking into Homebridge. Through Homebridge, you can use non HomeKit devices on HomeKit. Pretty cool stuff- you tube has many instructional videos.
That's what I use them for.
I am thinking about getting a couple of them for the same reason.
