We’ve renamed Home Assistant Cloud to Home Assistant Link. Here’s why the old name never did fit, and why this one finally does.

    HAC has problematic connotations, so we renamed it to HAL, which is 9000 times better.

    TL;DR Home Assistant Cloud is now Home Assistant Link

      Home Assistant Link is a bit too long to type out. We should call it HAL instead. HAL will never turn on its creators.

        “Unlock the front door, HAL.”

        HAL: “I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

    I have no idea what it was, but home assstant is anything but ‘no lock-in’ they have a very narrow idea of what you should and shouldn’t do with it, how and why. Essentially you are (or were didn’t have time lately to check) locked to home assistant os.

      You’re right, you have no idea what it is.
