@HairyHarry I would want three things:

1. Group groceries by category, so when I’m in the super market, I just have to look at the section I’m in, rather than scan through the entire list every time.
2. Recurring groceries, like milk or butter.
3. The ability to add recipes, so if I decide that this week we want butter chicken, I can just add that and the ingredients will be expanded.

@avidamoeba I kind of use it. The interface isn’t as intuitive as Tidal - which isn’t great to begin with. Wiim, which is another step down, is also better. It’s nice that you can play the same music across multiple systems, but since it cannot sync the music across players it’s not quite good enough for any use case I have had.

I do use it for automating my kid’s alarm in the morning on her Sonos speaker. Which also has an alarmingly high failure rate, but that’s because the speaker turns off and needs a prod to wake up again.

@batshit @kewjo Ah, like late night twerking!

@greatwhitebuffalo41 I don’t think I did. Most of this is straight forward. Honestly the hardest part was pairing the door sensor.

@spaghettiwestern The two that made me dive into the home assistant rabbit hole:

1. When the rabbits are out around sunset (door sensor on their cage) lights turn red and my and my wife’s phone get a notification. Too many times we remembered that the rabbits were loose while it was pitch black. Not too good with black rabbits…

2. Fixing the mess that is my Marantz receiver, communicating with my TV over hdmi and lately my wiim streamer. Turn it on and off depending on need, controlling zone 2 as well as turning on power for the zone 2 amplifier when it’s used in the receiver. The ridiculous part here is that it’s necessary - these things should just work!
