    > [..] the name just didn’t feel right. For example, there were times when Paulus, founder of Home Assistant and President of the Open Home Foundation, was on stage saying “don’t buy products that require the cloud to work,” then in the next breath having to explain how Home Assistant Cloud is different, despite the name.

    They tried to solve the problem "How can Paulus keep saying all clouds are bad except ours?", but Nabu Casa remains a Cloud service with different clothes. At least they're doing the right thing by focusing on why Nabu Casa currently champions different ethics.
