- Home Assistant is now part of the Open Home Foundation, a non-profit aiming to fight against surveillance capitalism and offer privacy, choice, and sustainability. - The foundation will own and govern all Home Assistant entities, including the cloud, and has plans for new hardware and AI integration. - Home Assistant aims to become a mainstream smart home option with a focus on privacy and user control, while also expanding partnerships and certifications.

I like the idea of Home Assistant. I just can’t be arsed to set it up.

Yeah, Well, everybody’s day only has 24 hours, need to pick the battles, right.

I finally did and it runs everything, from my lights to my energy and heating management. Worth the saved money, literally.

By any chance are you using Matter in your home? If so, does HA handle that well?
I was too early for that, it’s mostly Shelly, Modbus TCP and EnOcean here, plus some custom API via Ethernet. So, sorry, no experience with Matter, but I’m watching it.
