I’m choosing devices based on how good they work with zha and HA and usually have to browse a bit before settling for something. If they manage to implement this properly, I’m all here for it.
Maybe they should talk to the zigbee device compatibility repository people (or maybe they already have).



Not to mention that this post is specifically in the Home Assistant-community, which describes the FOSS, local control and privacy aspects of it in the community description.
