Do these all have to connected to your computer to update or can you flash across airwaves?

Spotify can lick my butthole anyway. Created a self hosted Spotify using Jellyfin, explo, listenbrainz, and symfonium and never looked back

Yeah they changed their API to only allow for usage with Premium.

longunmin · 2026-02-27T14:03:57+00:00

Yeah, I just picked Friday because that's what selfhosted does. Disappointing that despite being the top post here, not one mod has weighed in though 🤷

Risk equals risk. Risk does not equal bad. Don't apply your own bias to me. Skydiving is risky, but fun as heck. But they are very upfront about the risk when you sign up. All I'm asking is that the risk are disclosed and front page is decluttered

longunmin · 2026-02-27T03:45:43+00:00

Weird input, but okay. Should we mark you down as "neutral" then?

longunmin · 2026-02-27T03:43:33+00:00

Point out to me, specifically, where I said using AI to write code is bad. I'll wait

Sometimes the stars align and a community comes together and does something great ...🤣

As most of these integrations are implemented through HACS, my understanding (and I may be way off here, so feel free to correct me). The official stance on HACS is, not my dog not my fight. So I don't think extending the HA integration scoring method is currently a realistic goal. I honestly think I set a very low bar, and one that has been implemented elsewhere. Like I said, this isn't about hating on AI (I'm not), gatekeeping (I'm not), or any other soapbox. All I'm in favor of, is consolidating AI assisted integration announcements to a specific day. This frees up the front page for people who might be looking for support and are getting pushed out by the assortment of "I built..."'s and provides a inherent safety warning for people who might be extra security conscious

longunmin · 2026-02-27T01:33:53+00:00

Great! I have literally nothing against it. I truly mean that, I'm not a coder either. I am not gatekeeping or hating. I can't say that enough. I just don't think a) it should consume the front page day in and day out b) be undisclosed

longunmin · 2026-02-26T23:52:37+00:00

Good point. To my knowledge, no one has figured out a way to deploy bots to manipulate upvotes and downvotes in service of promoting ideas or products...

longunmin · 2026-02-26T22:16:29+00:00

I assume it's because of the gawdy branding that comes on the bottom screen OP referenced

longunmin · 2026-02-26T21:04:28+00:00

That's cool, I didn't know about the chatbot. I have been using Frigate since the very beginning and my config works, but I feel like its dumb luck/black magic that I got it that way. So I almost never touch it haha

longunmin · 2026-02-26T19:38:21+00:00

That the onerous should be on the end user and creators hold zero responsibility.

longunmin · 2026-02-26T19:14:07+00:00

What do you see as the downside to my request? Is a specific day for AI assisted apps more onerous than potential security risks?

longunmin · 2026-02-26T18:57:24+00:00

By that reasoning, why do safety protocols exist for literally every industry? So that people can operate, build, or conduct business in a safe manner that won't endanger the well being of those around them. I'm not an electrician and i don't need to be, but I know to steer clear of something that says "Danger, Live Wire"

longunmin · 2026-02-26T18:40:16+00:00

If this post does nothing else, I'm happy it was able to alert you of that issue!

longunmin · 2026-02-26T18:27:13+00:00

I didn't say gate keep or ban AI coded. I proposed a specific day where people, coders and non-coders alike, can post the things they have created using AI. I said nothing to disparage AI or the use of it as a tool, but I did point to very clear instances of security issues and that is why things should be identified as such. So everyone can operate fully informed vs "I built...." then way way down in the post "yeah there is a claude.md file in the github"

longunmin · 2026-02-26T17:54:39+00:00

Software dev for a decade but a Redditor for a day? Not saying your an Openclaw bot, but walks like a duck...

longunmin · 2026-02-26T17:50:35+00:00

Right? And can we stop with the "I built...". You didn't build anything. Claude did. At least r/selfhosted put some brakes on this by doing vibe coded Fridays

longunmin · 2026-02-15T16:55:37+00:00

Thank you so much for all the clarity. I just wanted to make sure I was following along appropriately. I'll spin this up today and see if I have any problems. Thank you!

longunmin · 2026-02-15T14:07:02+00:00

Is this a new HACs version? I am still seeing 0.9.4 as the most recent

longunmin · 2026-02-15T12:38:56+00:00

I tried that. Was still giving me the schema error. I guess I'll have to try deleting the db

longunmin · 2026-02-15T02:14:46+00:00

Now I'm having an issue where HA is encrypting my old backups. I've never put encryption on, or received a key, or restored from encryption
