Ahh, my first home assistant update blog post on kbin. Nature is healing!
Yes! Let’s make this place feel like home 🙂
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. :)
Sounds like maybe there’s a little refinement needed for that functionality but, like you said, it’s a step in the right direction!
The masonry layout makes this very awkward
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?
Waiting for end to end support in HA with easy setup. I have been tracking progress and rhasspy but want to wait for all the components to work end to end.
I have 5 rooms with Google minis in them I want to be fairly sure about the hardware before I commit hundreds to it. I might get one to play with.

Ya one of the things I am waiting for is to see if two way onvif cameras can be used as mic and speakers. It would let me kill two birds with one stone in common areas of the house.
Will upgrade after the inevitable 2023.7.1 update in a few days 😎
Surprise! It’s available now.
😂 might wait a couple more days in that case
Dashboard layout is my biggest complaint about HA so glad to see they are giving that a little attention.
Time to upgrade to 2023.6!
I’m guessing you run HA supervised. Or is there a way to update to older version on normal HA, as well?
I’m not sure what supervised means in this context. I run HA in a container on a k8s cluster, so I just point at whatever image version I want to use, which is ALWAYS at least one step behind “latest” :)
Lots of cool stuff in this release. I could see some very cool automations being built using the new service responses.
Deep links for the AppleTV is sweet! I can give my kids a button and have the tv play Baby Shark 🤣
Nice, I missed that! I have Apple TVs in every room at my place, so that’s a big upgrade for me.
I worry about your mental health if you implement your button though 😆
Nice!
