when i click the link i get forwarded to a bizarre corpo speak page that says nothing.

anyone know why this really happend or how to substitute? i’d rather downgrad HA then live without Asterisk integration. or is there a way to legacy that stuff?!

    Seems weird that according to telemetry only 25 people in the world were using that, while the GitHub repository linked in the other comment has 56 stars and 21 forks 75 issues and 200 pull requests. If it was true, those 25 users are the most passionate in the world.

    Same if watching on the ha forums, lots of topics for something used only by 25 people in the world.

    Could it be that, because asterisk is difficult to install, only pro users installed that, and pro users always disable telemetry?

    Edit: changed metrics for GitHub, indeed stars and forks are pointless numbers, went to watch my GitHub account and saw that completely useless repositories of mine had stars or forks

      Stars could be from people who used to use it and no longer do, or who planned to try it out but never got around to it.

      GitHub forks are kind of a meaningless statistic in my experience. So many of them are from people accidentally forking the repo and just never deleting their fork, or from spam accounts that fork random repos to make PRs with random content.

      I’m a developer of an OSS project with 68 stars and I know nobody uses it. GitHub stars doesn’t mean anything.

      Lots of people do have telemetry disabled. Kinda disappointing to see it being used as a reason for removing functionality without research first

        What other research can you do? You could go on the forum and ask who uses it but that’s not going to be any more accurate
