With a new ownership structure, Home Assistant is making its next big move
  • Home Assistant is now part of the Open Home Foundation, a non-profit aiming to fight against surveillance capitalism and offer privacy, choice, and sustainability.
  • The foundation will own and govern all Home Assistant entities, including the cloud, and has plans for new hardware and AI integration.
  • Home Assistant aims to become a mainstream smart home option with a focus on privacy and user control, while also expanding partnerships and certifications.

    Can’t wait to ditch Google Home. Nothing to do with their warmongering. Just hate that the assistant is such a dumb bitch.

    Thankfully someone is going to make a localish smart speaker.

      The hardware still looks so great, but responsiveness has gone to the shitter in recent years.
