Is it really neccesary to confirm the reboot in 2 dialogs?



For some reason I have to click many times in order to reboot. first there is the dialog that offers the option reboot or reload. Then I need to click again to conform. Suggestion; probably cleaner to add a link reload next to the reboot option. keep the final confirmation, but skip the dialog in between

And according to the developers when this was introduced, yes it is necessary as reloading should be favoured over restarting.

I do not agree with them and will vote for your feature request if you make one.

Me too…

Also don’t confuse rebooting with restarting.

Reboot: power cycle the host hardware, everything restarts. This should very rarely be required.

Restart: only the Home Assistant application is restarted. Other things like add-ons and the supervisor keep running in their own containers.
