SwitchBot hub does IR and can bridge those IR devices in via Matter. I prefer that to Broadlink which may not support local control? Idk it’s been while since I’ve messed around with broadlink devices, but I would prefer matter devices in 2025.
I use Apple Home, but I assume home assistant can handle matter devices?
I love the counters and table. That wood is sick!

Lol. While I was building my app I didn’t have a name for the first month. Then I came up with Blorp and my gf was like “yeahhh keep working on the name”. My thought process is that it’s most important that the name stick in your head so when your friend is like “I’m using Blorp” later when you go to download it, you remember the name. I’m also not a fan of Lemmy’s mouse branding. So I wanted a name that sticks in your brain and to ditch the typical Lemmy branding.
But if someone comes up with a better name, I’ll consider it. Naming things is hard lol.
For me its 50% because it seems the accept new users the fastest (from my very unscientific test) and 50% because Voyager does it so it must be the right way lol. Initially I had it randomizing between the most popular instaces, but I decided to simplify it and have it default to lemm.ee. I don’t feel that strongly. If someone presented a good argument for why I should change it, I would consider it.
The web version is also available! If you try it, feel free to submit any bugs through GitHub (linked in setting tab).
Thank you! Would love for you to joing the beta, either iOS or macOS for now. I will be rolling out other platforms based on demand, but I really need some early user feedback to help focus the work I do.
My eyes enjoyed your comment.
Coming in the next update!
Is that a positive or negative reaction? lol
LOL. Reminds me of this
It might actually just work. The build I’m distributing is a universal build that should work on Intel and Apple Silicon-based Macs. I’m not 100% sure what the minimum macOS version supported currently is.
I would say just try it, but I’m curious what macOS version you are on and if it works. I’ll see what I can do to expand support to older versions if people want that.
What comes after new?
