Yep, that's it. One of my most frequent uses of this widget was to turn the kitchen light off - the teenagers are forever walking in to the kitchen while we're watching TV in the loungeroom nearby, then forgetting to turn the light off when they leave again.

Having a quick access widget for it just made it such a non-issue for me to turn it off. No fumbling and swiping for the app, and no interrupting what we're watching to issue a voice command.

Disappointing that, if this was a thing, they removed it. Seems like the very definition of regression to me.

At least I know I'm not imagining it. Or that I'm not the only one. ;) Cheers!

Nah - not a widget per light. Per my OP, I had a widget that had a number of lights on it. The number varies based on widget size. I think mine had about 12 entities on it.

So you can't possibly conceive that a single finger tap on a home screen widget to control a light is far simpler, and takes less effort, than having to open the app each time, potentially scroll to the location of the entity you want to control, then tap?

Yep, but I'm talking about widgets that you place on your phone's home screen - not in the app directly.

Name the band? Maybe some of us can pitch in.

Oh man - hard disagree on this one for me. Still rates up there as one of the best adventure franchises of all time. We rewatch the trilogy as a family at least once every year or two, and always (re)notice awesome little easter eggs each time.

Plus, entirely safe for family viewing. It's getting harder and harder to find movies series like that where the teenagers will still enjoy it, and the young 'un can get into it.

Yeah, fair enough mate. I clearly didn't read it as intended.

I value critical thinking so, when someone else is able to point out how I haven't engaged mine, I'm more than happy to accept there's alternate perspectives I hadn't considered.

You might be right - just didn't have the feel of sarcasm coming from a place of shared pain.

~~Why be like that? Why be the person that has to piss on someone's parade, when all they want to do is share a small, personal win?~~

Edit: As covered elsewhere in this particular comment thread, this was indeed a joke. I take it back.

And, I think we can all agree, OP needs to share how they've achieved what may turn out to be the perfect first layer. As an Ender3 owner, I've all but given up trying to achieve this, so open to any tips or tricks I haven't tried.

Honestly, I'm not sure. You might still be partly right, though.

The Anglican church originated from the Church of England which was created by (the formerly Catholic) Henry VIII, when the Pope wouldn't annul his marriage to Catherine of Aragon.

Just evidence, as always, of religion being used to further a powerful person's agenda.
