I will attend the #Brussels #OpenHomeFoundation and #HomeAssistant meetups during #FOSDEM. I look forward to meeting the team and the community!

Contact me if you will be attending as well.

Choo choo! 🚂

Literally on a train right now heading to Prague to meet up with the whole Home Assistant crew from the Open Home Foundation. Team building time! Really looking forward to spending some quality time with everyone.

See you soon, team! ✈️

Received my Home Assistant Connect ZWA-2 Z-Wave controller yesterday and installed it this morning. A bit of a hiccup with the installation instructions, but quickly sorted with the help of Nabu Casa support.

The Zooz ZST39 worked OK, but occasionally seemed to stutter (particular with low-power sensors). There's a firmware update for it, but it appears they haven't yet published it to HA.

I'm hopeful I'll have a better experience with the ZWA-2.

I'd like to switch to Home Assistant, but still hesitant. Anyone wanna convince me?

Been watching for a couple years. Home Assistant Green is promising but I still get the feeling it'll be way more technical than I want. I won't code, I won't "tinker". I'm fine with the initial setup and adjusting routines or preferences, but after that it needs to just work. Also, no barriers around which devices I can use "out-of-the-box". For me, this means that I won't be installing additional apps or creating other accounts for any reason. Must work inside the Home Assistant app (Android) for everything. I expect this is possible with the Matter/ZigBee dongle, but I've had issues with some Matter devices in the past and I'm hesitant. Probably seems like a high bar for some, but I feel this is the minimum baseline for a smart home experience and I feel they're reasonable expectations. Ready? Go!
