Successfully integrated my 1999 #furby in #homeassistant today
After many years of using my tooth-brush to brush my teeth, I connected it to home-assistant via bluetooth. Not sure how useful this will be, but I can feel smart about it for a few minutes, I suppose.
There's a community meetup in Utrecht, the NL tomorrow evening - and we just opened up registration! 🥳

So I've got my #Mikrotik cAP ax mounted and the #UniFi equipment removed from my #Homelab successfully. I've also integrated it into #HomeAssistant just because with it's own user and group using the api. So far so good and yes there are a lot of settings in the MikroTik and it takes some understanding but I got there in the end. Even upgraded it and made backups. 😁

I do use Home Assistant! Maybe the solution isn't a smart switch that fully kills power to the bulb, rather one that's Matter over Thread or something?
@christianselig Hi Chrisrian. I don’t have a recommendation but there seems to be a lot of #homeassistant users here, so adding the tag.
Having trouble pairing your Matter/Thread devices? Make sure you have IPv6 enabled. I had it off because my ISP doesn't do native IPv6, so I locked it down.
That was the primary source is my Matter grief.
Once I enabled IPv6 on my Home Assistant controller (set to "automatic") things went a lot more smoothly. Don't need any infra changed, didn't need to touch the router. Easy peasy: Just make sure it's on at the HA controller.

I am yet to find a straightforward answer to “should I use all the devices I have that support Matter by switching them *to* Matter, or should I keep them in their manufacturer's apps?”
I *think* the answer seems straightforward, but I'm not sure.
@decryption you're doing this, yes?
