Home Assistant says ‘Big tech ruined the cloud, so we’re out’
The open-source smart home platform Home Assistant is kicking the cloud to the curb - in name at least.
AI Summary
Home Assistant announced it will rename its cloud service to Home Assistant Link, signaling a shift away from cloud‑based offerings. Founder Paulus Schoutsen said the change reflects the company’s dislike of cloud infrastructure, stating “we hate clouds.” He added that “big tech ruined the cloud, so we’re out.” The rebranding is the first step in the platform’s move toward a more self‑hosted model.
