Notify the users about breaking changes that the *device manufactures* made

Hi there!

I've recently read a Reddit post that my TP-Link Kasa smart plug will get an update that will completley break it's integration with Home Assistant. I was lucky enough to quickly disable it's access to internet, and still have it working but this remineded me of very important issue: Companies and manufacturers also often break our devices and setups by OTA updates or killing their services

Therefore, it would be really nice if (with this new service that you're building here) I could subscribe to alerts about different third party services and products that will change/break - not only Home Assistant

@ludeeus so we already have this?

Alerts can be opened against any integration, so yeah.
