  • Hey, I like YAML config just as much as the next guy, but I understand the decision to go the GUI way.

    With large Home Assistant installs YAML gets really messy, and most changes require a reboot to show up (well, both issues could be fixed by the devs, but they chose otherwise). I really thought that I’d miss YAML, but so far it’s working just fine for me. Migration or restoring is a bit more tricky, as I prefer the start from scratch approach instead of the restore a 10 year old backup one.

    Home Assistant’s (docker install) backup is just a zip file of the config folder. This makes it easier to fix things if needed, but isn’t as nice as editing YAML directly. I’d love to have option to use YAML if I want to and GUI otherwise.

    As for developers being a bunch of assholes? Well, you’re right. Luckily the community is much better and much more helpful.




  • Sorry to hijack, but can anyone help me with my issue?

    I’m using librewolf and since about a week or two I noticed a speed issue. Overall my internet is fast, way faster then I need in fact, but websites load at a unreasonably slow speed.

    When opening anything librewolf just sits there loading for a few second (probably up to ~10) then page opens fine. Video playback works great too. What could be the issue?



  • 3.25TB (2TB+1TB HDD with 256GB NVMe) locally with another 2TB mounted over the network and used as a media server. Games take up a relatively small amount of space in my setup as I try to keep them all on one 1TB drive (and it’s note even full) and I’m not playing much AAA games.

    Most of my stuff in multimedia (photos, videos, uncompressed audio recordings) and backups (I had to upgrade it’s drive recently as I went over the 500GB and I didn’t want to store data over multiple drives)
