Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

I have smart lights because I like the light to get warmer throughout the day but that's it, does anyone have a foss solution? Google is unhelpful.
Home assistant and its various alternatives
This is the correct answer. The bulb itself doesn't necessarily have to be FOSS. Really you just need bulbs operating on something other than wifi, and ideally without a proprietary hub. Hue bulbs can be made to run on ZigBee. Z-Wave bulbs also exist. Then controlling them should happen through HA. If it's just LED strips, ESP controlled ones are a great option.
