Ahh, my first home assistant update blog post on kbin. Nature is healing!
Yes! Let's make this place feel like home ๐
Once we have a native / scalable (multi room / multi device) hardware option for voice with wake words these new features for phrases and such are going to be great.
Other than the text to speech which I already use for announcements most of the speech stuff I am holding off on till I can full circle replace my Google Home Minis for basic commands.
What is currently stopping you from replacing them with something like Willow and a few ESP32-S3-BOX's?
Dashboard layout is my biggest complaint about HA so glad to see they are giving that a little attention.
Will upgrade after the inevitable 2023.7.1 update in a few days ๐
I'm happy to finally be able to re-arrange my dashboard. Not drag and drop, but it's a good start. I am guessing the numbering is now top to bottom so 1 top left, 2 below, 3 below that and so forth, but it doesn't on mine at least. I have 1 top left, 2 below, 7 below that, 3 next to 1 and so forth. But at least, I know where I can target my placement now. :)
