I wonder if I actually have any reliable temperature sensors.

#Netatmo seems to be unable to provide an API that doesn't collapse under load multiple times a day.

#FritzBox seems to get more unreliable with every firmware update and the smart home devices sometimes randomly crash and require a battery cycle.

Everything in this household seems to be equipped with a temperature sensor of some kind, but none of them are sufficiently reliable to use for automation.

Where is that #IoT future we were promised?

Why is everything proprietary and somewhat broken and requires 5 different generic white label "smart home" platforms under the hood which all don't want to talk to each other?

Even with #HomeAssistant, smart homes kind of suck.

My #netatmo weather stations fail to show me data on the web and in my app because of a Cloud issue. Unfortunately, there is no local way to read the data (at least to my knowledge, the #HomeAssistant integration depends on a cloud connection).

I knew about the cloud dependency, when I bought it. But I am still still surprised that the outage is lasting for hours already.
