Yesterday, Nabu Casa turned 8 years old 🎂! It’s truly amazing that something designed to fund open source projects has been thriving all these years, thanks to the support of our amazing community. We don’t need VCs or private equity; we have you 💗.

In case you missed it: Home Assistant now supports the latest version of Matter (1.6). If you're looking to run the newest devices all fully locally, a great place to start is a Home Assistant Green paired with a Connect ZBT-2. www.home-assistant.io/blog/2026/06...

Sounds like we need some awesome official hardware to proxy some things 😏... brb

The most sustainable device is the one you already own. 🌍 That's why our recent releases of Home Assistant and ESPHome help you bridge the gap between your smart devices and older, offline protocols. Read more 👇

We are again needing to raise the suggested price of Home Assistant Green. Every purchase needs to fund the development of Home Assistant, and rising component prices do not make this easy. The new price will be $199 / €179, learn more here 👇

Changes to Home Assistant Green pricing

Starting soon, the suggested price of Home Assistant Green will increase. Green is still the easiest way to get started with Home Assistant, but rising costs have made this change necessary.
