I’ve been actively suggesting to those who ask my opinion that they should wait until 2025 and more models coming out with NACS charging integrated. Tesla may be a shitshow but you can’t (yet) beat the charging infrastructure and adapters are never as good.

Also, the market is changing so rapidly that it’s hard to justify most of the current offerings.

This is what I do. DAVx5 works well as long as you’re ok withiut realtime sync (you can pick how fast you want it). I would love to see Fastmail build the support I to their own app but that’s not where we’re at.

I’m also using Dozzle and it’s been great for semi realtime use. I occasionally think about something for longer term logs but haven’t yet had the motivation.

My main use case for voice is for things that I haven’t been able to (reasonably) automate. For a couple of examples:

1. Saying “turn on the TV” as I’m grabbing lunch and walking across the room
2. “Turn on/off the stars” for bedroom mood lighting
3. “Timer for x” is honestly probably the most used things.

It’s all fairly trivial stuff to do manually but I think that’s probably true for the vast majority of home automation.

I really enjoyed it, especially after reading the author notes. It’s obviously not a “great literary work” but it’s a good quick bit of fun.
