A New Day for Insteon
There aren't really any Insteon logs per se. I use Insteon-MQTT which has a log of course (excerpt below), but it's not really useful. Insteon-MQTT communicates with an Insteon Power Line Modem (PLM), which really is just a bridge between USB and the Insteon network (both RF and powerline, despite being called only a "PLM"). The PLM presents itself as a tty to the host PC, and reports all of the traffic on the Insteon network as well as accepts commands to be sent to the network. Light switches (and some other devices) have four events as a result of physical activation: ON, FAST ON, OFF, FAST OFF, where that "fast" variety is a double tap (Insteon has no support for more than two taps, although I suppose one could fake this in software).

Taking a run at HA for my Insteon systems.
I have ISY+HA at home and Insteon-MQTT at work. Frankly, I like the latter more. It is faster and simpler. Once I get my last IOLinc replaced at home with an esphome on esp32, I'm most likely going to go Insteon-MQTT at home.

Library for Interfacing with Insteon Hubs and PLM's in Go
There's also a pretty excellent Python library which I leaned on for understanding the protocol here: https://github.com/TD22057/insteon-mqtt

RIP Insteon
This is just not true, for anybody with a PLM or ISY, insteon-mqtt works GREAT. I use it and I can do everything I used to do with Indigo.

Insteon Hub Pro and Homekit
I was in the same boat i COULD NOT STAND how bad insteon hub pro worked with Homekit and homebridge and i tried the hub v2. (i did not like the delay when trying to turn on a light or multiple lights at once) i am a heavy apple homekit guy and i have a whole insteon home and i did not want to have to change out all my light switches so after having a hub pro and hub V2 i decided to get the USB PLM (model number 2413u for about $99 CAD) I originally set up Home Assistant just for insteon but (later transferred everything from homebridge to home assistant but that’s not relevant lol ) after setting up my Insteon devices with the PLM i went to get the tool that helped solve my entire problem: Insteon MQTT this add on saved me and my entire insteon home. It may look complicated but i was a complete newbie when i did it and it took some trial and error but i got it working perfectly in the end. ( When turning on a light in homekit the insteon light turns on INSTANTLY) (u may need a raspberrypi to do this but it was the best investment ever). If u need any help give shout me a DM and i’ll help ya out :)
