Home Assistant deprecates the "core" and "supervised" installation modes

Our recent article on Home Assistant
observed that the project emphasizes installations using its own Linux
distribution or within containers. The project has now made that emphasis
rather stronger with this
announcement of the deprecation of the 'core' and 'supervised'
installation modes, which allowed Home Assistant to be installed as an
ordinary application on a Linux system.

These are advanced installation methods, with only a small
percentage of the community opting to use them. If you are using
these methods, you can continue to do so (you can even continue to
update your system), but in six months time, you will no longer be
supported, which I'll explain the impacts of in the next
section. References to these installation methods will be removed
from our documentation after our next release (2025.6).

Support for 32-bit Arm and x86 architectures has also been deprecated.
