How do I disable voice feedback on google home?

Whenever i ask my google home mini to turn off the lights, it responds with “ok, turning off the lights”, and if one of the lights is unavailable (switched off manually), then google home talks for literally a minute about how lights are unavailable, which is super frustrating.

Community has been asking to allow us to turn off the voice feedback for years. I’m wondering if that has been implemented yet or if there is any workaround.
