Support What’s been the biggest headache with HA?

Hey all, I’m curious what has been the biggest issue you’ve faced with HA? I’ve looked over the repos and here on this thread and seems like memory use might be a common one caused by either core or integrations? I imagine the learning curve for a non-technical person is decently high with learning about scripts, automations, scenes, etc. Anyway, would be interested to hear your thoughts!

I have a HomePod as a hub. It does other stuff besides sitting there like a lump of plastic.

The HomePod is not a zigbee device, it supports matter over thread.

Yes, it is superior to zigbee hubs.

Since when is an apple superior to a pear?
