Big step today. Powered down the last of my self-hosted infra at the house which meant my Home Assistant went bye bye. Can’t have that.
good golly i do love home assistant os
I took a full backup and downloaded it before taking my server offline. uploaded it to a fresh install i threw onto a zimaboard that will allow me to limp along for the next 2 weeks or so as i need to.
i'm back up in 15 mins literally exactly as it was before. amaze.
