Make internet access a utility and be done with it.
Sorry about the delayed reply. I have the P. Our house isn't big, and there is only one wall between the dongle and everything it needs to reach, so that helps.
I was in the same boat as you, OP. Bunch of Hue products on a Hue bridge, and I switched to Home Assist using the same Sonoff dongle. I installed HA on my NAS in a VM. There was definitely a learning curve, but I was impressed by how quickly Z2M detected my devices. All of my bulbs and a motion sensor are working perfectly, and I have disconnected the Hue bridge. The only device I need to configure is a dimmer switch that I had paired to my livingroom lights. I think that I have to do that manually.
Costco had artificial Christmas trees on display today. Today is August 5th. facepalm
If you want to be mildly terrified, do a search on which weather apps do NOT collect and sell your data. Hint: you won't find many.
They are notorious for gathering background data, including your location, obviously.
Unfortunately, most of the weather apps that claim to not sell your data are subscription based and fairly expensive.
I used to be a weather app nerd, but I'm also a privacy advocate, so these days I just use a bookmarked weather website.
On point. The cukd MUST be born, but after that they don't care to contribute to its upbringing. No education, no food, no healthcare.
Same in my 2017 Toyota. Bought it new and trained my brain to use it. Someone finally released a replacement that's set up correctly, and now I'm relearning the control.
