Any other Home Assistant users migrating over from Reddit with all the api BS that’s going on? If so, what’s your current project? Mine is to convert my Docker instance over to HAOS.

    Yep, the second Sync stopped working I stopped visiting. As for projects my current long-term one is working on getting away from a RasPi + docker setup to either a bare metal or proxmox with HAOS. For my short term I’m working on modifying the chore tracker by u/maceinjar on Reddit to allow you to switch from an interval of days to hours, and enabling recurrence based on the due date, not the completed date.

    My current project is an ESP-based irrigation system for the garden. But I am still reading up on solenoid vavlves and havent bought any hardware yet.

    Another Reddit refugee here. I have to say I miss the much busier traffic in Reddit though for not just this community, but all communities in general.

    Yea I just checked whether this community might exist and here it is. I don’t have any current big project. Just running my homeasistant yellow pretty happily.

    I’m here from reddit as well.

    Over the past couple days I’ve been working on getting my Amcrest cameras working and displaying on the dashboard along with general tinkering like adding Adaptive Lighting to test out.

    I’d like to dig deeper into custom dashboards but it’s a steep learning curve and I’ve gotten overwhelmed and discouraged each time I’ve tried it. I wish they would create a theme store or way to import other people dashboards so that you can just add your own entities and you’re good to go.

    Ha, doing the same thing right now. Both the Reddit and converting from Docker to Home Assistant OS part.

    Bought an Odroid-M1 that’s waiting just for this. Currently using a Pi 4 with Docker.

      Haha. Great Minds, I guess. I’m trying to switch TO an RPI4. I love the docker version, but I want better uptime and addons. Eventually, I want to move to a Yellow, but the CM4s are still so hard to find at the moment. Just ordered a SkyConnect too. Gotta see how that shakes out.

      I got HAOS installed on the RPI4, but the thing won’t connect to my network for some reason. Using POE an due need to troubleshoot.

    Yeah, Reddit native app is crap.

    Not a project but I’m currently adding my TV as a device and play around with casting media.

      I just used the Android TV Remote integration to replace my Chromecast Ultra remote. It’s awesome. So much more functionality than the remote. The only problem I’ve had is getting Jellyfin to be launched in one button press. There’s some problem, that I don’t fully understand, having to do with the Jellyfin app.

    Yep, deleted Relay earlier this week and have been exploring here. Don’t really miss it although a bit interested in the drama and if Reddit will have any true ramifications. I was there for the Digg to Reddit exodus and this feels very similar.

    My next project is to get my entity naming fixed and consistent. I’ve not started yet and I’m not even sure what the right approach long term approach is…

      If it’s any help I typically name things by Company > Location > Function like Aqara bedroom light switch or WLED coffee table

      Not sure if this is the best approach either but with 50+ devices and countless entities, its going okay so far.
