I like home assistant but I feel I’m always so behind with my own instances everything feels very outdated how I have it. But I just have no time to modernize it.
I don’t want to do that because once there are new features you want, upgrading in a big bang is basically impossible because there are too many breaking changes. So it’s better at least to fix small things all the time. Also on top of that security updates are very important too.
@jeena Guess that’s more a question of perspective. Professional installations tend to be more “install and forget” as each and every update is potentially disruptive. Only when the user asks for a change, modifications are performed.
