Yes, yes, dearest Home Assistant super fan, I know, I know. I’m holding it wrong. It’s me, not the product. I should just use surveillance technology if I want a reasonable UX because I am not committed enough to Sparkle Motion.

Home Assistant is good plumbing, but a terrible toilet.

@Crow Home Assistant is good at connecting all the messy technical things together (the plumbing, the pipes), but the user interface (the toilet) is terrible.

The plumbing leaves more and more to be desired as well: That monolith with tons of direct integrations serves well unless it suddenly doesn‘t.

I‘m more fond of the UI than the plumbing.
