    I’m happy to finally be able to re-arrange my dashboard. Not drag and drop, but it’s a good start. I am guessing the numbering is now top to bottom so 1 top left, 2 below, 3 below that and so forth, but it doesn’t on mine at least. I have 1 top left, 2 below, 7 below that, 3 next to 1 and so forth. But at least, I know where I can target my placement now. :)

    Once we have a native / scalable (multi room / multi device) hardware option for voice with wake words these new features for phrases and such are going to be great.

    Other than the text to speech which I already use for announcements most of the speech stuff I am holding off on till I can full circle replace my Google Home Minis for basic commands.

      What is currently stopping you from replacing them with something like Willow and a few ESP32-S3-BOX’s?

        Waiting for end to end support in HA with easy setup. I have been tracking progress and rhasspy but want to wait for all the components to work end to end.

        I have 5 rooms with Google minis in them I want to be fairly sure about the hardware before I commit hundreds to it. I might get one to play with.

        I looked into that before, and was willing to buy one to try it out. But I have not seen them for sale, everyone says sold out, besides some potentially sketchy AliExpress stores (including an official store that is different from the sold out one espressif themselves link to…)

      I’m also very excited for voice in HA advancing. I currently have a bunch of Alexas that see only my lights from HA.

      I was going to start replacing them for all but the kitchen music player, but then the PI shortage hit a few years ago and there have been no Pi Zero 2’s for non scalping prices since then :/ I do have 5 Playstation Eye cameras to use as microphones, though ;)

        Ya one of the things I am waiting for is to see if two way onvif cameras can be used as mic and speakers. It would let me kill two birds with one stone in common areas of the house.

    Dashboard layout is my biggest complaint about HA so glad to see they are giving that a little attention.

      I’m guessing you run HA supervised. Or is there a way to update to older version on normal HA, as well?

        I’m not sure what supervised means in this context. I run HA in a container on a k8s cluster, so I just point at whatever image version I want to use, which is ALWAYS at least one step behind “latest” :)

    Lots of cool stuff in this release. I could see some very cool automations being built using the new service responses.

      Nice, I missed that! I have Apple TVs in every room at my place, so that’s a big upgrade for me.

      I worry about your mental health if you implement your button though 😆
