Am I the first person to mention the flaming torches and pitchforks about the backup encryption on their forum?

+1 for this.

I have a Volumio pi with a DAC board directly connected to speakers

Volumio has the built-in ability to start playing a playlist as an alarm, but not ramp the volume

HA can definitely control Volumio’s volume so this seems like a good starting point.

I might even try when I’m home next.

Yeah, I watched the video thinking he had developed something similar and HA announced their’s, so he has to announce his…

But, I see both products as options not competitors as such - both are non-corp, privacy-first, hackable devices - just pick the flavour you like

Nice
