    We have deprecated […] Home Assistant’s Supervised installation method, which involves running your own operating system, then installing the Supervisor and other requirements on top of that.

    Tell us you can’t architect software like a first-year without using those words. Proper packaging has been out for 30 years.

    My foray into self-hosted home automation was set to begin, but if they can’t release software like adults then fuc–uh, good luck to them.

      Tell us that you have no idea how many flavors of Linux there are in the wild, each one with its own set of dependencies and bugs without using those words.

      Nobody is paying Nabu Casa to validate their packages for a gazillion Linux declinations, we rather like them to pay their developers to work for all the users rather than for a 0.01%er with yet another exotic setup.

        I just switched from that because it is a disorganized mess. no real account system. no custom language per user. authentication is an afterthought the main page loads without logging in. but the dashboard is less capable true: there is not even a thermostat widget that’s anywhere near as what hass has.

        wherever I look, hass definitely looks more organized and deliberate. ok, except scripting actions, but that’s it.

        also, I don’t understand what corsican wants to say, so maybe we have different needs.
