This change only brings speed & stability, which is essential, but hard to see for us, end users. The bigger one is going to happen on Thursday, where Lemmy itself is going to be updated. After Thursday’s update, any users will be able to block entire instances and see our upvotes, along with many other Lemmy updates.
EDIT: This only seems to work for audio, thanks for pointing it out
Try the AirCast community addon. The description says:
AirPlay capabilities for your Chromecast players. Apple devices use AirPlay to send audio to other devices, but this is not compatible with Google’s Chromecast. This add-on tries to solve this compatibility gap. It detects Chromecast players in your network and creates virtual AirPlay devices for each of them. It acts as a bridge between the AirPlay client and the real Chromecast player.
Sounds like just the thing you want, although I haven’t tried it personally.
I only have Zigbee devices so far, but I’m running it in multiprotocol mode. No problems so far.
but can we go deeper?
Good luck, Dude! I’m sooo looking forward to seeing what I previously upvoted.
