Anyone know how to cancel @rogers? I keep waiting on hold for over an hour and a half but never get through to anyone. Pretty smart on their part. Customers can't cancel if they can't reach them.

Hey @PizzaHutCanada when someone orders a gluten free pizza you CANNOT substitute a gluten version without letting the customer know. This is extremely dangerous for people with Celiac Disease. #DoBetter #CeliacAwareness

Hey @MazdaUSA & @github, Many of your users are pretty upset over the forceful removal of the Mazda integration from Home Assistant. FYI It was the only reason many of us used the integrated services. #InteroperabilityMatters #homeassistant
