I feel like every release except one for the past year has been about dashboards. Is this something a lot of users care about?

It’s something I often hear complaints about. Several of the Home Assistant users I know love the way it integrates all their smart devices together, but say they find making good dashboards difficult.

Improvements like proper drag and drop and better auto categorisation and population will go a long way to help them. The old default dashboard that just lumped everything in one screen isn’t a great way to get started.

Same here. And all these dashboard developments have made more fancy features, but have not made the whole thing any easier so far.
