Don’t worry it’s not an attack on you or a lie about what you said, just sarcasm.

Grayjay is also an option

Well I’m glad that you were able to get it to work again then and that it is fixed now

Going from your suggestions I was able to find a workaround to change the device’s state with just one click, so thank you for that.

For the second problem, it seems that while HA sends a command instantly, it only actually changes states on the dashboard once the device sensors update, which seems to be hard coded to happen about every 30 seconds. I am using an integration from HACS (Custom VeSync) though, so I feel like the problem is more likely to do with my own setup. Then again HA would previously just send the requested command no matter what the state was before…

Either way I’m not really familiar with Github beyond reading release notes and readmes.

Edit: Reading further into the integration I’m using, I realized that it relies on cloud polling. I wonder if there’s a way to make Home Assistant assume that a command went through, change states immediately, and then confirm the change with the next polling cycle, rather than just waiting. Unfortunately I don’t know how to implement something like this.

I do have one problem with the new humidifier cards. Some buttons got shuffled around and now turning a device off and on went from being a single click to three separate operations. Additionally, it is less reliable now, as it won’t send a turn on/off command instantly, rather only when the state of the device changes in HA. I don’t toggle them frequently, but when I do I want it to be fast. I’m sure there’s some workaround for it, but it just worked previously and now it just doesn’t.

What went wrong for you? I didn’t have any problems with the last one or this one so far (I use Z2M)

I guess that can be easier for some. Personally I kind of like looking for file sources myself, I’m somewhat particular about the quality I’m looking for. It’s probably also easier to manually handle edge cases, for example recently I found a TV show that came with all the extras such as the soundtrack along with the show itself, and I wanted those to end up in separate places.

I have jellyfin set up just for myself and those solutions just didn’t seem necessary to me. I simply pull and seed manually from my desktop and transfer the files to the server over the network. Easy enough 🤷

After you’ve done it once it’s much easier. You basically download whatever new APK the revanced manager suggests and follow the steps in the manager to select the patches you want.

Before getting Sponsorblock, I would always manually skip forward past the integrated advertisements. This tool does the exact same thing but faster and more convenient for me. My conscience is unaffected

Definitely, it makes sense to only keep making the new internal components past the short term

At least it’s accurate and not some sort of clickbait

The only devices I have that are on Wi-Fi are ones I got before learning about HA. Zigbee FTW 👍

A true archivist. I applaud you

Revanced also works with no problems

Pretty sure you can loan ebooks from libraries online in my area, so that’s something

Those can be had for pretty cheap these days, or you can order custom printed parts from some online services. Plus, some libraries have them now, free or cheap to use.

Good thing I didn’t get a lifetime pass back when it was on sale, was kind of tempting a couple years ago

Tempting, but I think I’ll wait for some sort of v2 release (I know it might be years still)
