I set up a notify group for each of us. I use notify.me and add/remove the devices as needed.

notify:
- name: me
  platform: group
  services:
   # - service: mobile_app_pixel_2_xl
    - service: mobile_app_pixel_6

- name: her
  platform: group
  services:
    - service: mobile_app_iphone

Then you can use it like any other service:

service: notify.me
data:
  message: Test
  title: Alert!

The guided installer will resize your disk volume and set it up for dual boot by default. It's Fedora based and uses KDE Plasma which is a great user experience IMO. Admittedly, I only booted into it to briefly kick the tires but the install was a pretty smooth process. This page details what features are still missing so I'd suggest looking there first to ensure you're not missing anything critical. For me, missing USB-C monitor support is a deal breaker.

The Home Assistant team publishes the analytics they collect (for those that allow it). The integrations and add-ons pages might interest you if you haven't seen them.
