-[Mycroft](https://mycroft.ai) is a hackable, open source voice assistant by MycroftAI. OVOS-core is a

+[Mycroft](https://mycroft.ai) was a hackable, open source voice assistant by the now defunct MycroftAI. OpenVoiceOS continues that work and ovos-core (this repo) is the central component.
+
+All Mycroft Skills and Plugins should work normally with OVOS-core. Other Mycroft-based assistants are also believed, but not guaranteed, to be compatible.
 
 The biggest difference between OVOS-core and Mycroft-core is that OVOS-core is fully modular. Furthermore, common
 components have been repackaged as plugins. That means it isn't just a great assistant on its own, but also a pretty
 small library!
 
-Furthermore, it offers a number of cli bindings. The old Mycroft shell scripts still exist, and still work, but that
-stuff is now built into the Python program (docs to follow in the form of `--help`, because it's a lot.)

-**Installing OVOS-core** (NOTE: at this early stage, required system libs are presumed, and your distribution might be a
-question mark.)
-
-We suggest you do this in a virtualenv:
-
-`pip install ovos-core[mycroft]`

-As always, the OpenVoiceOS team thanks the following entities (in addition to MycroftAI) for making certain code and/or
-manpower resources available to us which may not have been compatible with our practices before:

-- KDE
-- Blue Systems

+We strongly suggest you use the companion project [ovos-installer](https://github.com/OpenVoiceOS/ovos-installer) to install OVOS, several repositories are needed to get the full assistant running
+
 You can find detailed documentation over at the [community-docs](https://openvoiceos.github.io/community-docs) or [ovos-technical-manual](https://openvoiceos.github.io/ovos-technical-manual)
 
+This repo can be installed standalone via `pip install ovos-core`

 ## Skills
 
-Mycroft is nothing without skills. There are a handful of default skills, but most need to be installed explicitly.
