Every time I check for progress on my #HomeAssistant PR for adding support for the #APsystems EZ1 inverter, I get pissed. I've put a lot of time into the PR I've been waiting for a review since over a month and that one guy says he doesn't have time for that, but still reviews other PRs. I mean, I can't judge, he's also just a volunteer, but I still feel a bit cheated on. The other thing is that HA is (kind of) a commercial project and they ask me to review 2 others PRs to get my work merged.
@Mawoka PRs that add a new integration take a lot of time to review. Many moving parts including reviewing the library that is used. Reviewing small PRs takes a lot less time and can be done while on a short break.
Home Assistant is part of the Open Home Foundation and is not a commercial project. Last year 17000 people contributed. There are some people working full-time on it for Nabu Casa. Their focus is on the chores and releases and making sure the community is successful.
@Mawoka Haha, good luck. The more I see of HA, the more I think it's going to be dead by the end of the year. I really used the heck out of it, but it's just getting more buggy and commercialised.
I've moved pretty much everything to Smartthings, and the few remaining automations I have will be going to NodeRED as soon as I get my head around it.
