As always with new things or even trends: battle lines are drawn! Either it’s lavishly praised to the heavens by the same people in my industry as the ultimate solution to everything. And then there are those with total rejection,…
Skip to the guide In recent years, I had repeatedly considered setting up a Home Assistant instance to bring together the many loose ends of my smart home landscape. In addition to the Fritz!Box with thermostats and a few switches,…
