interesting your proxmox problems. i have a NUC on the way and am planning on moving from bare metal on SBC to proxmox

yeah i read it a few times and still don’t understand what it says

agree. These people are so up their own ass they can’t see.

i love my innoveli switches

i went from an apt to a house and debated this. i did not start from scratch. i had to move some devices to different areas, but a lot of the same automations i liked i was able to move over and just change some devices. my dashboards changed of course to accodate a different space but naming of things was still familiar, all the add ins, and other stuff was still there, just a lot less to have to set up again.

for me there’s a ton of little things that probably i would have to re-learn to set up, easier just to leave it be and move it around to whatever new room it needs to be in.

is there a wewantplates sub? this would be perfect for it

android tablet with fully kiosk

if you label the entities chat gpt could get you an automation pretty easily with this one. you need to use the fp2 sensors as triggers and potentially conditions with the switch.turn_on and turn_off service calls as actions

there are no ads yet

agreed conbee 2 is old tech, no use going that route these days

yeah i have some bulbs through the hubs and some on the zigbee stick. for awhile actually had all of them on the zigbee stick but things were slowing down, so moved back. Been using HA for a long time now and IMO there’s no bad option from a setup perspective with hue.

fwiw the hue hub is reliable and has some nice features. it’s also not too chatty online and you can block it from the internet and everything still works great.

i use a zigbee dongle and a hue hub

love the innovelli blues
