I was reading the HA roadmap and thinking about the points where everyone (else) interacts with my HA environment. I’ve wanted displays/dashboards for a long time but mostly have either battery powered buttons or smart wall switches. These are good in that I can automate them but with two teenage children we have a lot of variability.

Tell me how everyone else uses HA in your house. Do they love it? Do they see only that buttons ‘do things’? Do they read dashboards and crave data?

    I don’t quite get the NFC tags thing. Does this mean you have a tag on your wall that you tap your phone on? Is this something you prefer doing over opening home assistant on your phone and clicking the appropriate button? Not being critical or anything, I just see it mentioned often but I can’t really conceptualise why it’s a thing, and I’m curious what I might be missing.
