Google pulls the plug on first and second gen Nest Thermostats (www.techspot.com)

Google announced the end of support for early Nest Thermostats in a support document earlier this year that largely flew under the radar. As of October 25, first and second generation units released in 2011 and 2012, respectively, will be unpaired and removed from the Google Nest or Google Home app.

Users will no longer be able to control their thermostats remotely via their smartphone, receive notifications, or change settings from a mobile device. End-of-support also disables third-party assistants and other cloud-based features including multi-device Eco mode and Nest Protect connectivity.

You ever see that comic with the guy popping out the well saying "Yet you participate in society. Curious!"?

[–] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yes. And I'm pretty sure it doesnt apply. You said "I don't like devices with network connection" which is broad and silly.

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

I was clearly not referring to devices that need network access to function. This is a post about Nest Thermostats, not computers and phones..
