Also they made it reliant on the Google Home app, which makes it really hard to change WiFi networks. It's a pain in the ass if you have multiple WiFi networks setup at your house.

Why on earth would you have multiple WiFi networks in your home?

I take my Chromecast on holiday, you basically have to factory reset it every time to change network. But my recollection is that you've always had to do that.
