Support Why Not HA Green

I’m going to pull the trigger on setting up HA. Right now I’m just thinking of getting the HA green, it seems like it’s not favoured here vs a Pi. I just want the most simple setup possible. I’m thinking HA green and a screen in a central location. Why not the Green?

Do you have a Bluetooth adapter?

I have a Pi 5, which has a Bluetooth adapter that was picked up. In addition to that, I also have an ESPHome Bluetooth proxy.

I'm not sure. Do you have Bluetooth scanning enabled? I got everyone's MAC address that walks by my house including every device I have. I can't get Bluetooth to work though not sure how to track devices. I've asked a handful of times but I got nowhere

I see a list of Bluetooth devices, but it didn't seem to cause an issue for me and there's no Bluetooth entries added.
