None of the devices I bought for it talk to the internet! Home assistant can control and even update the Shellys completely over the local network.
Any suggestions for someone tech savvy enough to run a proxmox server for a handful of services, to get started with home assistant?
Can you replicate something like a Google home with voice commands?
I may or may not be getting a new house soon. I'm good with electrical to replace switches with wireless ones. But what do you get? Where do you start and where do you end? What about the WAF?
I saw LTT did smart switches in his house and it was a mess of incompatibilities.
Any good resources? I don't even know what I don't know haha
Community scripts has home assistant, both lxc and VM options. Use the VM version and you can get HA up and running super quick.

Also shout out to community scripts! If you run proxmox and aren't using community scripts then you're about to hate yourself for all the manual builds you've done.
Fuck. I almost wish I didn’t read this.
