Got some great feedback from Blake Blackshear, about my pull request to run #frigate at a sub path (incl. as a PWA app on Android). That would simplify my setup, to access Frigate via Tailscale. It is very powerful to run Frigate in combination with #nodered for AI video surveillance 😎

It is very sad to see zero contributions from the #nodered community for dashboard D2. Only lots of complainers, who expect others to provide them free high quality software. If I somehow could turn their negative energy into light, aliens could see us from other galaxies in a very far future...

I am currently refactoring the ui chart node of #nodered dashboard D2, to replace ChartJs by Echarts. Because that is a blocking issue for many other open chart-related tickets. But that is easier said than done...

When developing free open-source software, my DNA expects at least some minimal respect from the users. However that wasn't the case tonight 🤐. Fortunately the disrespectful and greedy users are still a minority. But anyway, no #NodeRED for me anymore tonight...

You know those moments: after many hours struggling to write a tutorial in English, suddenly a native English speaker pops up to tell you with a big smile that there is somewhere a typo 😋

See my tutorial about integration of Reolink doorbells with #shelly and #nodered via webhooks:

Recently #reolink added webhook support for their video doorbell devices, which greatly simplifies the event (button clicked, person detected, vehicle detected, ...) handling in external systems and devices.
Hopefully Reolink adds this nice feature to their other camera models soon...

Recently I have written a tutorial about remote access to Node-RED via #tailscale, because lots of #nodered systems had been hacked last year. Hopefully this tutorial can help people to secure their home automation:

I have created 4 pull requests for the next release of the #NodeRED dashboard D2, to help Joe (and Steve) a little bit with their huge backlog:

Especially the dynamic ui-template feature request was a 'challenge', since I am by far a VueJs specialist...

Finally some known faces from the #NodeRED community have joined BlueSky. Time to start sharing about my hobby activities...
