Smart local devices rock though. Its not the technology but the implementation for many IoT devices that sucks ๐Ÿ™‚

I have this pipe dream of a noob friendly router/hypervisor/NAS combo that would trivialize the installation and running of server-side apps like nextcloud or home assistant. The reason it's also a router is to automagically forward ports so you could have remote access without ~~someone else's computer~~ the cloud.

Zigbee has been great, as I know it's a local device. Finding WiFi devices that don't phone home is impossible.
