DO NOT UPGRADE TO FORGEJO v13.0.0. The community-backed Gitea fork dropped its fourth major 2025 release earlier this week and is warning users not to upgrade after finding a bug that mistakenly deletes actions-related secrets. The link above outlines what to do if you're one of those Watchtower people who YOLOs container updates. In other news, Home Assistant announced Home Assistant Yellow is ending production while also promising software support far into the future. I don't personally find this particularly newsworthy, but was anxious for the opportunity to once again point out how awful Nabu Casa is at naming devices (even if it means they'll never sponsor this newsletter): - Yellow vs Green: Why colors? And why names that make it difficult to discern any differences between the two?
- Connect ZWA-2: Why 2? Is there a ZWA-1? If it's the successor to the ZBT-1, why not drop the protocol from the name and just use Connect 1, Connect 2, etc.?
- Voice Preview Edition: Why not just 'Voice Preview'? In the past, Home Assistant's use of the word 'voice' encapsulated all interactions – is it now limited to spoken interactions?
(In their defense, I rebrand selfh.st and its various publications every few months – so I suppose I don't have much room to talk.) A few other tidbits to chew on while you're waiting for OpenAI to enable erotic content on ChatGPT: Happy selfh.st/ing! Newswire
