Are there any recommended best practices?
I’m doing a fresh setup on a new system and want to use this opportunity to organise things better. Previously it was quite a mess 😅
Some loose thoughts:
- I don’t really want to use the brand, so I could replace devices
- Not all devices have a fixed place (e.g. the phone), so using the room in the name might not be a nice solution, or I could use “portable” instead for those
When i add a Bluetooth device to my phone, i use an emoji to show what type of device it is. 🖥️📱🎮🎧
I use the hearing aid emoji for earbuds: 🦻
When i had home assistant working, i used emojis to name all my devices, then when you sort by name, it groups the emojis together.
