Hey hivemind, some questions in the run-up to #FOSDEM

Are people from #newpipe and/or #tubular going to attend? I'll be pretty busy, but I would love to do a half hour UI/UX feedback session.

I did one spontaneously last FOSDEM but lost the contact data, and the number of improvements in this regard is sadly zero. That's on me, and I should have retained the contact data

I'm also happy to donate and/or donate to a charity of your choosing if that helps.

#retoots appreciated

Along similar lines, is someone from #tusky going to attend? I would love to do a UI/UX feedback session as well. Some things are hard to explain over text and immediately obvious in person.

And another one, though that doesn't need in-person: what's the least amount of effort to have a long-term-stable #homeassistant with #matter over #thread? I suspect a zbt-2 with the home assistant green? Are the 4GB of RAM enough? Or a #raspberrypi ? Or a N100?

@RichiH Wait a few months? The whole matter over thread stuff is still quite new and bleeding edge in home assistant, so it will take a while now the first devices hit the market for people to figure out what works and what not probally.

@evey I already bought everything from Ikea and some things from aqara. Currently on a Ikea bun, but I'll migrate to Ha for privacy reasons.

I'm fine waiting for support getting better, but I feel the hardware won't change much

@RichiH @evey The IKEA stuff with an Apple TV/HomePod (I have both) works flawlessly in my experience, as long as you don't fuck up HA receiving ICMPv6 RA Route Advertisements as I did. Otherwise get DHCPv6-PD working for a 'cleaner' setup.

@evey @q the honest answer is, I have a fritz box and don't even know how it does v6; the Ikea thing works out of the box after an uncomfortably long wait. I did so many things and see so many things at work and volunteering, I just want my home setup to shut up and run forever.

I'll keep it in mind in case I need to decide though; that sounds like the kinda thing that costs me the week I don't have now that travel is restarting for realsies.

@RichiH @evey I got it all working properly in about 4 hours of head bashing, most of that spend trying to get prefixes out of kea on one server and into the Juniper routing table. JunOS does not like receiving random link local addreses as next hops...
