Eric, thank you for taking the time to answer my question about integrating items into Home Kit. I will look into and probably give Home Assistant a try. Sorry I wasn’t able to answer during the live stream, I was at work at the time and was able to get my question asked but wasn’t able to stick around to listen to your answer live. I really enjoy your channel and content, thanks for doing what you do for us. Thanks again. 😊

Here is my issue with Matter/Thread devices. When WiFi/internet goes out, my hub goes down. And matter/thread devices stop working.

There is no way in hell the industry is headed toward home assistant. It’s way too complicated to ever be a widely used product. It will have its niche for now with people willing to put up with the pain in the ass it is to use. But I would never recommend it if someone asked, unless they were a total tech nut. If you are asking if you need it you don’t. You’ll know when you need to move it to it.

I’m don’t subscribe to membership programs, if I had a membership for every YTCC who has content that I’m interested in, I would be working for them and handing over half my paycheck to them, in this economy, day, and time, I’ll keep my money in my pocket to take care of me and mine, on extremely rare occasions, a minimal superchat maybe but, not a given, especially when the membership starts at $4.99/month with no $10 discount for paying yearly and no $1.99/month option, not that that would change my mind, but shout out to those that can afford to do it
