What do you find awful about the dashboard? Is there another automation system that has a better implementation?

I find it clunky. There's a forced default dashboard for some reason. I cant limit control of devices/integrations for other users.

I havent tried any others, Home Assistant does the job and is well supported, its just lacking in some areas.
