- Chamberlain blocks smart garage door opener from working with smart homes
- Home Assistant blocked from integrating with Garage Door opener API
- MyQ's horrible take on open access to their devices

How Do We Lobby MyQ to provide a decent API?
Personally I went with OpenGarage https://opengarage.io/. I have been using OpenGarage for 3+ years now. It has been amazing.
- Ask HN: How do I make sure my mom's garage door is closed?
- Q: How does my 2-wire garage door remote know if my garage door currently up or down?
-
My first Arduino project sends me a text if my garage door is open at 9:30 PM each night.
If anyone is lazy, but wants the functionality and insists on open source….check out https://opengarage.io/ ($50) which offers similar functionality. I switched to a MYQ door opener which made the opengarage need obsolete, but I’ve been happy with MYQ - however it does require cloud access.

Meross > MyQ garage door opener
I switched to opengarage.io - after trying a few garage door automation devices that utilized door sensors.

Matter 1.1 release – Enhancements for developers and devices
I recently got some Matter-capable IoT lightbulbs to try, and I am not impressed. They seemed to have all the same problems I've experienced with previous IoT products (connectivity issues, state de-sync between device and "edge router", firmware updates take ~10 minutes per device).
Then there are problems specific to Apple's IoT stack - like how it's impossible to set an RGB capable light to a ~specific~ white color temperature. Instead you get a shade picker and you have to guess what the color temperature is.
The best IoT experience I've had is with OpenGarage[1] using regular old WiFi, but overall I'd still never rely on IoT products for anything critical.

Garage Door openers... can you use a wireless sensor instead of the cabled one?
I got a opengarage thing instead. No door sensor. Uses ultrasonic sensor to see if the door is open or closed. All one piece, hardwired to power. It's been rock solid.

Noob help with finding out IR frequency of remote.
Definitely, I recently did something similar for my garage door using a sonoff relay module, flashed with the Tasmota firmware ( I'm using Tasmota on all my devices ). Gory details are here - https://github.com/NorthernMan54/homebridge-tasmota/blob/master/docs/GarageDoor.md
