#airgradient — Public Fediverse posts

The latest release of the #AirGradient firmware removed the code that phones home to the company servers even when you check the to to explicitly tell it not to do so. This is a big win for #privacy and #SelfHosting!

I plan on flashing this onto my device and testing it to verify nothing was missed. #tcpdump and #wireshark are my friends. 😄

This doesn't have anything to do with the #HestiaPi (yet 😉), but AirGradient is one step closer to fixing their compilation instructions.

This is exciting news because once their code is modified to stop phoning home to the company's server, I plan on adding documentation to the HestiaPi project on how to configure the #AirGradient ONE to act as a remote temperature and humidity sensor.

If you've ever had a #thermostat mounted too close to the door, you understand why this is important.

Aktives Gesundheitsmanagement mit @homeassistant ... wenn die Nachbarn wieder die Öfen anwerfen und es blöde #Inversionswetterlage ist, dann steigt der #feinstaub belastung so das es Frau mit #Asthma schwer hat, ergo #smarthome regelt im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes ;) #Airquallity #monitoring #airgradient #lüftung

Today I tried to help move the #Proxmox provider for #terraform a little closer to a stable release. It wasn't much, but I think it helped.

I also am trying to help get instructions to compile the #AirGradient One #firmware from source. If I can get people to reproduce the behavior I'm seeing, I am hopeful that we can get this nailed down. I'm keen on getting familiar with this because it is #ESP32 based, and we want to make an ESP32 based model of #HestiaPi

Gotta keep at it!

#saharastaub #osterfeuer #pellets #holzofen sind sooooo toll NICHT das die #Luftqualität eher richtig Mist ist, Lüftung automatisch aus Dank #airgradient und #homeassistant damit Frau mit Asthma ein bisschen weniger schlimm am Husten ist und wenigstens ein bisschen schlafen kann ☠️

FINALLY! Accurate and consistent #airquality #airqualitymonitoring with #airgradient of course directly flashed #esphome and @homeassistant compatible Firmware and start Controlling Ventilation of our Home if something like picture 2 is happening (Holzfofen/Home Wood Stoves starting in the street)
