We all need to post this on reddit. Spread the word that this platform is booming and more people will come over!

Her coat is still so shiny! She must be doing good.

Simply incredible \⁠(⁠ϋ⁠)⁠/. I'll have to check out the browser version.

This is amazing! How did you manage to post more than one image!?

Oh oh! Time for guess the location game! I'ma go for Denver Botanic Gardens. The backdrop and trees look familiar to me.

I would recommend one but I have always been wery about sending password data through the internet to be stored on some companies server. So I put in the effort to host my own Vaultwarden docker instance through TrueNas scale (True charts) on my home server and access it via a VPN tunnel (Wireguard). It's very complicated to setup compared to a web service but this way I own all of my password data locally. The android app (Bitwarden) works alright but sometimes it has trouble understanding what is a login screen and you have to force fill things. Vaultwarden as a docker instance works great. The only time this setup needs to be on VPN is to save a new password. Using existing passwords seem to be cached on my device.

Same thing here. Using ESPHome almost identical config from the tutorial except for my wifi secrets.

If anyone is interested here is the ESPHome config I arrived on:

substitutions:
  name: "vindriktning_01"
  friendly_name: "vindriktning 01"
  project_name: "ikea.vindriktning-sensor"

ota:
  password: !secret freindly_password

wifi:
    ssid: !secret wifi_ssid
    password: !secret wifi_password

    # Enable fallback hotspot (captive portal) in case wifi connection fails
    ap:
      ssid: "Ikea-Vindriktning-01"
      password: !secret freindly_password
      ap_timeout: 30s

esphome:
    name: "${name}"
    project:
          name: "${project_name}"
          version: "1.0"

esp8266:
  board: esp01_1m

# Enable logging

# Enable Home Assistant API

sensor:

    pm_2_5:
      name: "Particulate Matter 2.5µm Concentration"

web_server:
    port: 80

I appreciate the transparency. Keep it up! Everyone is loving it here (⁠◍⁠•⁠ᴗ⁠•⁠◍⁠)⁠❤!

Thank you! Pretty amazing what light come in when you can hold the shutter open. It was a Sony a7r4 with the Sony 200-600 @600mm mounted on a sky_watcher star adventure II with a slightly modified counterweight to handle the load.

Vindstyrka is definitely a more attractive sensor, with more capabilities. I was super excited to see it. One of my requirements was to have an esphome device as I don't have a ZigBee network. Seems like the data interpretation through i2c isn't quite there for Vindstyrka, Ikea is doing some calculation after reading the sensor on it.

Oh man. If we do I have some killer bird meme faces lined up!
