 @hexa:lossy.network | fwiw, it advertises itself as Installation method: core | 19:17:59 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | https://analytics.home-assistant.io/ | 19:18:19 |
 lukegb (he/him) | yeah, but core installation method is explicitly unsupported if it's using "the distribution Python" | 19:18:28 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | with 4,2% the smallest installation type, and probably very heterogeneous | 19:18:40 |
| lukegb (he/him) | iirc you have to use a virtualenv | 19:18:45 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | reasonable :) | 19:18:55 |
| lukegb (he/him) | https://github.com/home-assistant/architecture/blob/master/adr/0016-home-assistant-core.md#supported-python-versions | 19:19:36 |
| lukegb (he/him) | ah, it's collected here: https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/home-assistant/core/-/blob/homeassistant/helpers/system_info.py?utm_source=share#L42:9 | 19:21:57 |
| lukegb (he/him) | I'm guessing we somehow always manage to trigger is_virtual_env or something | 19:22:18 |

Looks clear enough, but to someone like me who likes to read every single piece of documentation back to back painfully obvious. Of course I am not the intended audience for this change so take this with a grain of salt 🧂 | 21:16:57 |

| @hexa:lossy.network | yeah, it's difficult to find the proper spot(s) to make the community well aware | 21:17:38 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | header of the wiki page probably | 21:17:44 |
| vika (she/her) 🏳️⚧️ | It's just... My train of thought goes "of course it's unsupported, NixOS is doing a lot of things its own way" | 21:19:01 |
| vika (she/her) 🏳️⚧️ | And additionally I like reading upstream documentation and it usually lists supported installation methods | 21:19:23 |
| vika (she/her) 🏳️⚧️ | So by the time I get to distribution-specific documentation I'm usually well aware of support status for certain more esoteric setups | 21:19:59 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | right | 21:20:13 |
| vika (she/her) 🏳️⚧️ | I just hope it won't be the "toxic" kind of unsupported where issues get closed without letting you speak if you go so far as mentioning an unsupported configuration somewhere | 21:20:47 |

| 21:20:46 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | I've submitted reasonable issues to the upstream before | 21:21:02 |

I like this one more! | 21:21:33 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | You just need to make sure that the issue really belongs there | 21:21:20 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | If you can't tell better to report to us. | 21:21:30 |

You just need to make sure that the issue really belongs there That's what I consider reasonable actually | 21:22:08 |
