@homeassistant Having followed some top advice. The simple answer seems to Settings/Entities and filter for Unavailable.

Sensors: 8867 to 1745

I’ve got a very old #HomeAssistant instance that now has a large number of old unused unavailable entities.

Is there any way to tidy this up and remove unused devices/entitites? @homeassistant

After 6 years of having Nest thermostats I don't regret them but getting them integrated into #HomeAssistant seems to be getting harder and harder.

Given up for now after trying to get them back with Google Nest integration or adding them to Home Bridge.

No idea what has changed but it doesn't like my account anymore.

My #zigbee2mqtt is down which means #HomeAssistant isn’t doing the jobs of closing blinds and turning on lights.

I miss automatic blinds and lights more than I expected.
