hello world! (self.homeassistant)

This weekend I had the urge to use my raspberry pi!

Podman + the all in one image and I'm up and running. (Ok it wasn't quick as I played with different Debian releases and getting the podman systemctl process working)

So far, I am most excited about being able to track the humidity on my nest thermostat. I'm in Miami and am in a constant battle with it! I'm playing with the cards and really like the gauge and statistic views.

Connected my pi-hole, my Spotify, weather, lights. Trying to figure out what's next. Recommendations welcome. Happy to see the community support as I read more.

We've got a few grafana instances at work but I don't think I'll head that direction without finding a few more smaller projects first.

With a mesh wifi, (and a bad experience with wink/wave/ZigBee) at my last house, I'm thinking WiFi for sure!

Thanks!
