Entities card - only show entity state (I want no action)

Configuration Frontend
1

The glance card displays everything in matrix format. Although I would prefer to have a list of entities displayed as rows.

The Entitites card does that, but by default dispalys the action of the entity, rather that the state itself.
How can I have something like the below directly for the entities?
note: no, I do not intend to create binary_sensor for every entity I have. That would be a maintenance nightmare.

I know this is old, but I wanted to do something similar recently. Show a value with no “decoration” on it.
It’s a lot of messing about, but you can define extra “read-only” sensors in the config and use those on the display card. Here’s a bit of my configuration.yaml
template:

  • sensor:
    • name: “Mi-1 Temp”
      unique_id: “UID_MI-1_Temp”
      unit_of_measurement: “°C”
      state_class: measurement
      state: “{{ states(‘input_number.m1_1_temp_storage’)|float }}”

In my case input_number.m1_1_temp_storage is a helper that stores a temperature for times the bluetooth messages don’t get through from a thermometer, but it’s reading an input number that would normally show a slider or input box. I’m pretty sure you could put anything in there.
