What in the last 6 months would you have really missed if it didn’t come out until next month? For me, there have been some nice to haves but nothing that’s made me go wow!
I won’t 
but I was also affected by this with some ping sensors but the possibility wasn’t really removed, you could achieve this function anyway by changing it to handle the same behavior with for example automations as described in the thread earlier. It probably took me less time to restore these than it did to write this answer. As you write: adapt and overcome.
Absolutely, but hasn’t it gotten better? Sure, some changes are harder to understand than others but I’d be concerned if I saw HA stagnate, then I’d consider switching.
Doubtful, this would make the system incredibly complicated. Which functions should one get these possibilities for, all or some? For how long, a few months or forever?
For me too sometimes I usually wait for one or two point updates before I do the update, but not always … However, I always read if there are any breaking changes that can affect me and in what way before.
I don’t understand this, how did the forum updates get worse? For me it wasn’t a big deal but maybe I missed something 
Then, it would just be another Home Depot appliance. No thanks.

I don’t know what Home Depot is but HA is at the heart of my home. A bad upgrade could potentially cause me huge inconvenience (lights, gates, etc not coming on, opening etc when needed) and could cost me a lot of money (turning on a large power using device at the wrong time).
No promises but options are being considered by the devs.
I have seen this mentioned here for someone using Dutch, but “Hey Google Set/Change/Switch the inputselect.name to dropdown option” works for me. What happens for you?
An American home improvement chain.
This is a good reason for NOT ignoring upgrades. (Read breaking changes, first).
Home Assistant is NOT an appliance that grandma can buy at the department store and plug it in. I, and I presume most others here would not even use that.

I’m grateful that you have made these posts, without them I wouldn’t be able to make the required changes

Since you both had the same question:
They should be there, make sure you are using the official integration and not the custom component.
If it isn’t showing up, turn on debug logging for home assistant, and then please open a issue with your logs.
Is anyone in the community with the required skills able to take the source code from the last frontend release (20231030.2) of 2023.11.3, extract the classic thermostat card and make it into a usable custom card? I’ve had a look at the source code, but all I am seeing are .ts files and I have no idea what to do with them. I was expecting to see .js files, do a little bit of tweaking and drop them into config\www\community\classic-thermostat-card to be able to carry on using the classic style, a bit like it appears you can do for integrations/custom components. I’m not a fan of the new thermostat card and it appears I am not alone, so I thought I would have a go at it, but it’s a bit beyond my skillset.

I am using this add-ons GitHub - hugobloem/homeassistant-addons: Home Assistant Add-ons for Microsoft STT with Vietnamese. After update Core to 2023.12.1 all the STT output become English, I rolled back to 2023.12.0 and it worked fine.
Does anyone have an idea about it? Where can I find all the changes (in source code) between 2023.12.0 and 2023.12.1? On GitHub I don’t know till which commit is for 12.0 and from which is for 12.1
That is something you need to report to the 3rd party add-on developer.

Anybody else get a noticeable increase in core memory usage with the update? Look likes mine is up by 5%+ since I installed the beta. Just noticed now. Not sure what integration is causing it yet.
Looks like my standby core CPU usage is down about 3% though so that is cool.
You do realise that the HA team do not write the software that the forum is run on?
What was taken away that you can’t find? I missed some bits, but found them after while.

It really would have been great if the migrations for homewizard plugs that made it to 2023.12.1 would have been in 2023.12, where it broke.
Now I had deleted all the old ones in the energy dashboard, and created the new (as per the breaking notes) only to find a day later that there was a migration for that in the update and we would have kept our stats. With about 10 or the things, that is a bit painful.
Unless I’m missing something the new thermostat card is actually a step backwards! Is there any way to turn the thing on/off or change mode with out going into the extra settings? On/off/mode really should be on the front of the control kinda key when you are controlling heat pumps and similar.
For those who don’t like the new Thermostat card either I highly recommend this custom card available in HACS: GitHub - KartoffelToby/better-thermostat-ui-card: a custom card for a better thermostat in home assistant based on better_thermostat intigration
You can swap the target and current temperatures with: set_current_as_main: true

2023 has been the Year of the Voice
My godness, finally, what a period, … haven’t seen a word yet about if we see something exciting for the upcoming “year of the …”
Personally, I consciously limit myself and talk to people rather than devices.
