I really wanted to love Homey but I just can’t take it anymore. I have the new homey pro 2023 and I was wondering if it was possible to reset it and use it as a home assistant server and leverage all the antennas (zwave/etc)

anyone managed to run home assistant in addition to homey software on the homey hardware?

Do you have a specific problem?

I would like some capabilities home assistant have and then get them into homey via the home assistant integration, but I don´t want another device to run home assistant on. I want Apple TV as a device in homey. That is supported via home assistant. I also want our iPhones and iPads to show up as …
