Thoughts, learnings and regrets after three years on Home Assistant

Haha I like your description of the 8 point ticket.

Updating HA always reminds me of what a friend used to say. "Software is like cathedrals. First you build it, then you pray".

The post-update relief when everything actually keeps working for once is really great though.

I've been using a Home Assistant Blue for two years now. Always updating, never had a single issue. It's actually so smooth I don't even think before clicking "update". It seems like a much more stable installation method.

If that is an issue then backups and snapshots are your friend. Even container can help you. And if you don't want to update, run it on Debian Stable.
