How many of you have an HA solution, which is open to the internet? (lemmy.world)

I'm running my own HA locally, in my house, but I would like to be able to access it also when I'm not home. So I've put it on my Zerotier One VPN, which works fine. Except for two things:

  1. HA no longer knows when I'm home - it thinks I'm always home;

  2. Other people in my household would also like to have remote access, but it's unrealistic to have them install and use the VPN.

So - can I just open it up, and rely on long, complex passeords? Or is that a complete no-go?

Nabu Casa is the way. Built by Home Assistant for Home Assistant, and utterly seamless and reliable (in my experience).

Most importantly it supports the developers who have created this amazing piece if software! Do it! 👍🏼🙏🏼
