Roborock (Xiaomi) and Dreame are the big players from what I see. Both conveniently have models that can be "de-clouded" with Valetudo:

Many models can be hacked to run https://valetudo.cloud which is completely local. I’m using it with a Roborock S5.
Any way around "smart" appliances/electronics?

The presumed "abuse" was posting these 2 screenshots https://github.com/DeutscheKI/dreame-w10-valetudo-fork/blob/... https://github.com/DeutscheKI/dreame-w10-valetudo-fork/blob/... into this https://t.me/+uGuDHt0dNCVmODli telegram group with a polite but lengthy text about which UI changes were made between this fork https://github.com/DeutscheKI/dreame-w10-valetudo-fork and this master branch https://github.com/Hypfer/Valetudo/ and what the motivations for each UI decision were.
That Telegram group has 1000+ users. But Hyper found it annoying that I @ tagged him in that message. So, everyone, please calm down, our disagreement was merely about communication style.
