ESPHome keeps disconnecting and when connected, controlling devices is very slow on Firmware: 2026.4.5

Ever since I upgraded to 2026.4.5, I've had issues with Wi-Fi connection on my ESPHome. Not sure what exact version I had before since I don't do updates that frequently, but I have tried reflashing a new firmware on it too with no change. Also added power_save_mode: none to my YAML config, but no change.

My ESP model is ESP32-WROOM-32D, has anyone else started having such issues? I've also tried moving the ESP32 closer to the AP, but no change.

How do I configure my ESP32's existing YAML without Device Builder?

My ESP32 has started to disconnect frequently from my Wi-Fi network (Ubiquiti). It has previously worked fine but has started to disconnect, so I can't control my devices. I think I need to add "power_save_mode: none" to the device's YAML config, but how do I do this without Device Builder add-on? (my HA is in a container so I don't have access to add-ons, and I can't find a way to edit the YAML without it)

Or do I need to completely recreate/prepare the device again?

I tried using the ESPHome Docker container, but it won't find the existing device / config.

Migration Assistant keeps failing to transfer files, and Time Machine System Restore doesn't work for my backup data. Is there any other way to restore the system?

Yesterday my MacBook Pro's macOS install decided to become unbootable after it shut off due to low battery. Ok no problem, I have Time Machine backups. I'll just reinstall macOS Sequoia 15.7.7, and restore from backup... and it doesn't work.

- Restoring from a backup during macOS setup was restoring my files for about 5 hours (using USB HDD), until it asked me to restart. And restart again. And again. It went into that "Migration Complete" loop. After I got out of it, nothing was really transferred except for the user name, and profile picture. No applications or anything else.

- I reinstalled macOS again, this time creating a temp account and then using Migration Assistant. But I got the exact same result.

- As a last resort I tried checking out if Time Machine System Restore would work, but nope, it just instantly complains "You must use Migration Assistant to transfer data from this backup".

Is there anything I can still try to restore the user and applications from the backup?

Tailscale subnet routing on the Docker version?

I planned on running Tailscale on my NAS as an OpenVPN replacement (because OpenVPN sucks), but my NAS can only install Tailscale via Docker.

Is using my NAS as a subnet router possible on the Docker version of Tailscale? Or would I simply be better off setting up Tailscale on some other device for this purpose? (I have 0 prior experience with Tailscale tbh)

SteelSeries GG has officially dropped macOS support with version 109.0.0

Kinda unfortunate, since the macOS app is still Intel-only so it’ll fully stop working in macOS 28.
Not that many people probably used it anyway since they felt like dropping the support complately I guess (and most likely it was done due to macOS’ Intel support coming to an end)
