"Best" local automation system that also works well with Google Home
I understand the feeling :) I’ve tried home assistant multiple times, and I always come back to openHAB. Maybe it’s me getting old, don’t know. But like you, I dislike updating my server and having broken dependencies. That happens quite frequently with HA, where every once in a while we get people over on openHAB community forum asking for advice ( e.g. https://community.openhab.org/t/migration-from-home-assistant-to-openhab-and-installation-type/140110 ) because they too just want a stable service that they can rely on. I won’t say that there’s never been broken dependencies - not at all, in a previous update they changed the way the API works and the node red node broke - but here the difference is that you can go to their GitHub and review the changes (https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/releases/tag/3.4.0.M3) and they are impeccable in documentation. Check out the google integration documentation to understand what I mean:
- OpenHAB cannot install bindings - maybe server is down?
- Openhab 3.3.0 M4 has been released!

Look into OpenHab.

Completely disconnected HA for bus living?
OpenHAB would work well as well. Definitely agree on zwave or maybe zigbee devices for low power usage.

SERVERS DOWN
I use this https://www.home-assistant.io/ or another https://www.openhab.org/ and a cheap raspberry pi zero. It can run 24/7. And maybe some "hacking" on your devices if not supported aka listed.

Printing emails based on Message Filters, does not seem possible
All of my office devices are connected to Sonoff S31 smart plugs, flashed with Tasmota on their own locked-down VLAN, and can be controlled via voice, Alexa, Tasker automation on my Android, NFC tags at my office door and various scripts triggered via my StreamDeck (on Linux). This all works fantastic, and I can turn on or off my devices, including my printer, when I start or end my day at work.

Sonoff smart plugs
The ESP8266 based Sonoff S31 and ESP32 based Switchbot plugs, both flashed with either Tasmota or ESPHome, are my go-to options for US WiFi smart plugs with power monitoring.
