 Home Assistant Core 2023.5! 🎉
 
-Thanks for helping out testing the beta! ❤️
+What an exciting release we have for you this month! This release is all about
+voice (well, almost fully), and I'm super excited we can ship you all this truly
+amazing stuff!
 
-Enjoy the (beta) release!
+I've been following the progress of this all being built this month, and really,
+I've been mindblown multiple times a week. So what is in here? Well, you can
+now actually talk to Home Assistant! 🤯
+
+I really appreciate that all these voice elements have been built the
+Home Assistant way: to be fully configurable and extendable. Giving you choices,
+including entirely local options for your own voice assistant.
+
+This release is packed! And we are not even halfway through Home Assistant's
+Year of the voice yet…
+
+Enjoy the release!
