Going through and hiding all of my entities. Painful process but making it easier to use in the future. @homeassistant is looking better and better each day. #HomeAutomation

... Why? They exist for a reason, the interface has filter and sort options.

@nottelling I am never going to use the majority of them so there’s no point in looking through them every time I need something

Fair enough, just seems like a lot of work vs. 2 clicks on the filters.

what is the point of doing that? I just checked and I have hundreds of entities, it would take a huge amount of time to see which ones to keep visible / which ones are used in automations or visualization etc. What is the harm of just leaving them exposed?
