We’ve renamed Home Assistant Cloud to Home Assistant Link. Here’s why the old name never did fit, and why this one finally does.

    What a giant waste of resources…

      I’m sure the 5 seconds spent changing some text strings on their branding will be sorely missed

        Yes because it definitely only took 5 seconds…

          Well dang! So they wasted 5 whole seconds? Unbelievable! They could’ve used those 5 seconds for good! Like, I don’t know, drink some water?

          He’s coaching you on your mindset, not claiming you’re physically preventing something.

            I am in no way preventing anything, physically or otherwise. If changing names is your idea of fun, have at it. But the project will suffer as a result.

                  You said the project will suffer as a result [of changing names]. Why will the project suffer as a result of changing the phrase “Home Assistant Cloud” to the phrase “Home Assistant Link”?

                    I said it would suffer because it’s a waste of resources.
