    Yep, I'm relatively new to Home Assistant but love it. Combined with ESPHome, I've got most of the lights in my house controlled (via switch changes, not smart bulbs), and my all my air conditioners via the MHI-AC-Ctrl project[1,2] (which is fantastic - ordered the boards from JLC-PCB, parts from Ali-Express, told ESPHome to program everything and plugged them into the ports and...it all just worked!).

    Just got a Mitsubishi Electric (which is different to MHI) and a Daikin at my parents house to get online - but code for both exists and I suspect the MHI boards can be reprogrammed to fulfill the role without any hardware changes.

    It's incredible that the future we wanted in like, 2010 can be had and had without selling your soul to the cloud: I can leave the house, and turn off all my lights and AC's while walking out the door, or get notified if I've left my garage open - without a single cloud provider dependency, all open-source.
