2023.7: Responding services

The previous release was a big one, and this one is no different! This release brings in a change to Home Assistant, which we consider to be one of the biggest game changers of the past years: Services can now respond with data! It is such a fundamental change, which will allow for many new use cases and opens the gates for endless possibilities. I’m so excited about this one!

But that is not all; there is a lot more in store for you! Some of my favorites: The Bluetooth proxies are now lightning fast, copy ’n paste in dashboards, a new sentence trigger, and I love that a broken automation no longer disappears into thin air but now shows up in the UI marked as problematic. All-in-all, a great release packed with many new features and a lot of quality-of-life improvements. Enjoy the release!
