Points and comments are a snapshot, not live.
Meta open-sourced device SDKs for building DIY hardware that pairs with its Muse assistant.
Muse Gadgets provides open source SDKs (Apache 2.0) for ESP32 and Linux boards, enabling custom hardware like screens, buttons, and sensors to connect with Muse. Featured examples include a Waveshare AMOLED, M5Stack StickS3, Raspberry Pi, and Seeed reTerminal. Devices require an SDK token from Meta, are limited in number, and may break without warning. Meta calls the project "by hackers, for hackers" and disclaims warranties. A Muse Home Link and upcoming TV HDMI stick are also mentioned.
What commenters are saying
Commenters are deeply skeptical of Meta's open-source push, citing privacy concerns and distrust of the company's history. Many see the token requirement as contradicting the "own your own" ethos, comparing it to digital licensing. Others note existing alternatives like Home Assistant plus ESPHome. A few speculate on ESP32 price spikes. The thread splits between those who see potential in the hardware approach and those who refuse to let Meta control their smart home.
