Hello ๐Ÿ‘‹

I desperately wanted to interact with my desk using bluetooth with the ultime goal of integrating with Home Assistant to get some nice automation with the desk.

I spent an entire day playing with different libraries including yours, so thanks for the effort ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ”ฅ!

Today I'm creating this issue to share with other people a different library not because I'm an idiot boycotting your lib but because it hasn't been maintained for over 2 years and it may hopefully help some people. I hope you won't take any offence here, let me know otherwise!

I've discovered this python library https://github.com/rhyst/idasen-controller which has a great API and can keep the bluetooth connection with the desk up and running.

I've built an MQTT wrapper and dockerized my project so it could easily be used to interact with the desk from Home Assistant. I've explained all the different possibilities of having that integrated in home assistant on the README of my project: https://github.com/maxime1992/linak-2-mqtt

Letting the issue open for you to see but feel free to close it anytime, people should be able to find it in the closed issue ๐Ÿ‘

Thanks again for the work on your lib!
