thanks! i checked out after chirospasm recommended in the other comment and it actually has most of these things, truly awesome to be able to also browse posts from other platforms in Fediverse and Bluesky from it too, i might give a try to selfhost it for me and my friends

I did read and no they didn't address this specific question, this is all it says about personal assistants:

Tip 5: Open-Source Voice AssistantOpen-Source Voice Assistant

Say goodbye to Alexa and other voice assistants that eavesdrop and analyze your conversations. Instead, try a privacy-friendly alternative like OpenVoiceOS, an open-source assistant developed by an active community and runnable on a Raspberry Pi. This way, you stay in control of your data.

someone else just mentioned to me in another community about Friendica as well and it does have something similar to "pages" and many of these things I mention, thanks!

thanks, I'll check it out

I'm new to the Fediverse and am astonished when I see Facebook icon or direct mention but I usually see alternatives for Reddit/Discord/Twitter more mentioned, has anyone here used Facebook? Mastodon doesn't have events calendar nor communities or "pages"/alternative profiles to use for branding without needing separate account unless I haven't explored it enough then I'm sorry

I didn't know about OpenVoiceOS, I usually see Leon more recommended (also open-source), are there upsides of using OpenVoiceOS instead of Leon? I don't see Leon mentioned on it
