You know, I think I was rushing through things too fast after a day of programming for 8 hours with close to no breaks.
After I calmed down, ate dinner and came back to it in a more leisurely fashion I found it to be pretty easy.
I think what got me was that I’m not too familiar with Matter and Thread, so having to have another Docker container going was unexpected and frankly I wasn’t in the mood to learn anything new.
The sensors seem to be reporting happily and often. I’m pretty impressed so far (other than the ports on the hub, but I can live with that).
You sound like me any time I have to get support from anywhere. I don’t often need support, but when I do it’s always crazy stuff like this that irks me.
In the rare case you do find an email address it oftentimes just goes to some ticketing software that no one can be bothered to care about.
Most recently I emailed my bank’s support because when I try to switch my debit card’s checking account (something they do) I just got an HTTP 500. Four days later I get boilerplate about “how to switch your card’s spending account.”
