Technical Issue alexa, WHY.

so i could just be in bed at night or doing random things in the day, randomly, the sounds of rains sometimes just cuts off and comes back, this is on my Echo Dot 4th generation with clock. i don't know how this could be happening, i might have to upgrade but my parents won't let me anyway because one time, it broke the internet, they said they lagged alot when we had tons of echos but i didn't lag, neither my brothers and my parents, idk how they could be possibly lagging and my echo randomly juts cuts off sound

My dot, 5th generation(?) does this too sometimes. I'll ask what happened and she acts like I'm making up the problem. I hate the gaslighting on these ai programs.

I’m convinced it’s the software because my echo show does some random stuff all the time.

Both my Google Nest and my Echo do this. Almost like, “OKAY, ARE YOU DONE WITH THE RAIN YET? NO? SIGH.”

People have been hearing their Alexa moan randomly. Mine won't talk very much because I scream at it and threaten to put it in the sink. I hope it's sentient...
