The answer is still yes. Your posts go out to the fediverse and comments come in from the fediverse.

As Darth Vader said, you have to be the change you want to see in the world.

If you appreciate OpenStreetMaps then check out StreetComplete. Its “like” Pokemon Go but for improving maps.

This looks exactly like what I’m looking for!

Oh that isn’t quite what I was looking for but I’ve got Home Assistant and Jellyfin already. I’ll have to play with this! Thanks!

Pretty sure Immich allows you to act on existing directory structures of images now. The database itself is hardly an issue there.

I like this idea so much. Do the public libraries not have some kind of video service already? Seems like a network of library-powered PeerTube instances would serve that niche really well.

Ah. I still have a “gmail” account but it’s entirely for the places that require a Google account now.

As for YouTube, I just stumbled across this thread: https://lemmy.zip/post/16741291

I highly recommend looking at something like Proton for 3 and 4. Or backblaze for 4 if it’s truly for backup.

It’s the THIRDREALITY Motion Sensor https://a.co/d/giK2dvw. It’s worked really well so far.

Neat. I did something similar but simpler. I put a cheap zigbee motion detector in the mailbox and hooked it to a routine to toggle a flag and trigger a notification. Yours sounds like more fun though.

What phone functions are you interested in? In theory if you can control it from HA you can control it from Assist. Sometimes it requires a bit more elbow grease though. I don’t use timers much, so I haven’t tried that. I don’t see why you couldn’t create a custom sentence and intent for it though.

I’ve already replaced It with Home Assistant. Wake words are still shaky, but everything else is at least as good if you’re willing to configure it. At least for my use cases.
