What's the difference between that and DONGLE-E?
The chipset. The former uses one from TI and the latter one from Silabs.
The Silabs one was marked experimental until recently but I heard it's still not as stable
Though this probably doesn't matter if you have a small ZigBee network

@lynatic:catgirl.cloudLyn (they/she)Doesn’t the E dongle also technically support Thread in promiscuous mode while the P dongle only supports Zigbee?07:21:28

@k900:0upti.meK900 Weirdly, I don't care about Thread 07:21:47

@k900:0upti.meK900So I would actually much prefer to just get a Thread thing07:22:32

I have the E-dongle and it supports both zigbee and thread with the multiprotocol firmware

Don't do multiprotocol. Just get two sticks

Can't you use any existing button with a Thread "switch" like https://m.intl.taobao.com/detail/detail.html?ut_sk=1.ZePUU%2BurHrQDABCFeGaKc/IL_21380790_1730683154411.Copy.1&id=759224027511 ?

@lynatic:catgirl.cloudLyn (they/she) I'm having this problem with my nixpkgs-unstable override right now, is there any fix? 17:08:05
@k900:0upti.meK900You can't really just stack a package from unstable on top of stable17:08:35
