Portal TV VS Gladys

If you don't mind Facebook invading your house, I find their Portal TV peripheral to be good since the screen size is much larger. https://portal.facebook.com/products/portal-tv/ There's another portal model that's as big as a small mirror. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

You're absolutely sure you mean Portal TV? Not one of the ones with it's own screen, but the webcam-looking thing that clips to the top of the TV? Https://portal.facebook.com/products/portal-tv/. Source: about 3 years ago

We are making Gladys Assistant ( https://gladysassistant.com/ ), an open-source smart home software. It's less "techy" than HA (no YAML files, no CLI), and UI first. We have way less integrations for now, but are working hard on it. Don't hesitate to try it and make us some feedback. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

Lots of open source projects will do that for you actually. I'm using Gladys for that, works very well, but requires a bit of tech skills to set up. Source: almost 3 years ago
