I have a bunch of presence and motion sensors (like four, but shush) and when people leave rooms I would like to turn the lights off after five minutes, however if someone returns to the room before that five minutes is up, I’d like to start that countdown again. Is there a grateful way to do this that isn’t me just doing if no activity for five minutes, turn off the lights, else wait five minutes and then turn off the lights. Because that’s ugly, rigid and not very smart at all.
It has come a long way, absolutely.
There was a while where if you didn’t check the change logs before updating, you’d likely be in for some surprises. That’s pretty rare now.
I don’t really feel like a proud parent because I haven’t contributed much, even in the way of bug reports. I’ve just been along for the ride.
You say that, but the last update broke my thermostat with their new climate controls and also some of my lights needed switching to the light service from the switch service.
The thermostat backend didn’t change, just the card right? It looks different but didn’t lose any functionality. Sorry you had trouble with it. I have 4 or 5 different thermostats and they never stopped working.
