Tasmota: Open-source firmware for ESP devices
I tried micropython, liked it, an developed and operated a few home automation devices with it. But changing anything after a few months was a pain - what flashing tool did I use, how did that detail work, etc. Now I run around 15 Tasmota devices in my household and would never look back. The initial flash, depending on the device at hand, can be trivial (e.g. using https://github.com/tasmota/tasmotizer on a device with builtin USB connectivity or with a USB-serial cable) or a bit less so (like the somewhat involved OTA reflashing process https://github.com/yaourdt/mgos-to- for the very handy and inexpensive Shelly devices). In any case, after that it all becomes easy, with web-based configuration, OTA updates, "fleet managament" software like https://github.com/danmed/TasmoBackup, and plug&play integratiom with Home Assistant. If somebody integrated micropython into Tasmota for cases where the countless configuration options and libraries integrated into Tasmota don't suffice, it would be perfect. But meamwhile there is a similar scripting language available within Tasmota for ESP32 devices so I can live with that.

Release Radar · May 2024 Edition: Major updates from the open source community
Firmware and embedded systems engineers will love this project; Tasmota is firmware for ESP8266 and ESP32 based devices that allows you to more easily configure your devices. The catch with this new update is that direct migration for versions earlier than 8.1 are no longer supported. If you're using anything higher, you can directly migrate to this latest version. Tasmota 14.0 adds a bunch of new commands, support for new hardware such as temperature and pressure sensors, and lots more. Read up on all the new devices, modules, and how to migrate in the Tasmota release notes.

Printing emails based on Message Filters, does not seem possible
All of my office devices are connected to Sonoff S31 smart plugs, flashed with Tasmota on their own locked-down VLAN, and can be controlled via voice, Alexa, Tasker automation on my Android, NFC tags at my office door and various scripts triggered via my StreamDeck (on Linux). This all works fantastic, and I can turn on or off my devices, including my printer, when I start or end my day at work.

Ask HN: I’m an FCC Commissioner proposing regulation of IoT security updates
The best alternative firmware example for true IOT devices is Tasmota [1]. Erase manufacturer firmware for every ESP devices the day after purchase to avoid those careless manufacturer firmwares.
