Yeah Mlem is very buggy and missing a lot of big stuff right now. That being said, folks should use it to at minimum provide feedback so it can improve.

LOL, how silly. A federated community going unfederated is just a small echo chamber. See ya beehaw!

Is this just for IR or RF and IR? If both I am bummed lol…

Agreed, I am willing to bet the blackout reached at least 40-50% of users in some way.

I actually use iOS but I’ve had phones on both sides of the aisle several times in the last 15 years. I work in cybersec and android excels at that kind of thing. Infinitely more power to access systems, use terminal, pull up ip based webpages, and a far more comprehensive app suite to do so. Personally, I’ve just found iOS more stable in my day to day but I have an android tablet for best of both worlds.

Omg I could kiss you. Reddit has been an excellent bullshit filter for google but the blackouts made it tough.

For sure. I would honestly love to not but I work from home so it’s easy to watch a movie and wait for a teams notification if I’m needed :)

I don’t see why not? I can engage the mod over there.

Definitely curious, how do you set these up and what do you recommend getting?

With iPhone shortcuts, you don’t actually read anything off the tag, it just recognizes it and runs a shortcut that calls a home assistant entity (least that’s how I do it).

Yeah, your edit definitely got it. Looking back in time, if I knew what I know now when I bought all my devices, I would’ve gone exclusively zigbee. Faster, extremely reliable and they expand and remap to each other automatically. I’ve slowly started replacing my non zigbee stuff with em.

Since this is pretty straight forward, I think most any “single click” Zwave switch would work? I love IKEAs stuff but I think it’s mostly Zigbee.

Me too, home assistant integration in google is lackluster to say the least. I think it’s mostly Google’s fault but even just like devices not showing their correct state is pretty annoying…

Doubly awesome - not only can you subscribe to both versions of said /c/aww on (most) any server, you will see the content inline with your normal feed so it’s effectively just several versions of the same thing.

I have used Reddit for almost 15 years now… This is very reminiscent of Reddit from 2012ish, loved the homie vibe of subreddits then, now the site just feels like a megacorp. Loving Lemmy’s direction so far.

Interesting, I have an Unraid server that does all of these in one. Whats the benefit of splitting them like that?

Good to know! Is that only applicable for communities within our own server?

Ironically Reddit mostly became a “filter google bullshit response” site. I miss the community stuff from Reddit of 5 years ago, I think Lemmy is heading in a good direction.

Lol I can’t wait till this is national news, right before they go for their IPO.
