With the recent R10 flow cells the error rate has improved. The basecalling models have also been steadily improving and therefore reducing the error rate.

For assembling a bacterial genome the consensus error rate is as low or in some cases better than Illumina.

Nanopore platform has its usecases that Illumina falls short on.

> So, yes, you can sequence your genome relatively cheaply using these technologies at home, but you won't be able to draw any conclusions from the results

Agreed, any at home sequencing should not be used to draw any conclusions.
