I guess I'm trying my best to future-proof when I start buying new devices. I have a ton of those Kasa smart switches, but they are wifi and require the Internet to be controlled via home automation.

It feels like we're in a weird holding pattern waiting for this unifying standard that has been extremely slow to roll out.

Feels like I've been waiting forever for just a thread+matter light switch. It doesn't even need to be a border router or anything, just something to upgrade to that doesn't rely on wifi or the Internet to work.

I've been using Connect, and it's been pretty good so far.
