I love Home Assistant and have been using it for years. It just keeps getting better and better over time! With so many new features added all the time I have just started blowing away my entire VM of it and recreating from scratch to see what's new. It's a good problem to have!

Blue Iris in the other hand... just give me a damn version that runs on Linux natively and not some Wine bullshit.

Development has been going crazy for the last year or so. I don't regret a single cent I've paid for the nabu casa cloud subscription (not many subs I can say that about). I do, however, regret that I only have so much money to spend on new things to attach TO home assistant and start automating.

Data export from history to a CSV file! I love that there are always features I didn’t even know I wanted until someone else thought of them ;-)

Me: Hovering mouse over the update button Click it!!

Also me: No no, it says right in the changelog that this is one of biggest releases ever, wait for a point release

Me again: but you can make the "sleep time" automation say Goodnight after it runs!!!!!!

Custom responses is something I've been waiting for with bated breath. I used TTS over media player but that messed up whatever the media player was doing so I dropped it.
