On a whim, I decided to order one of these cheap little temperature sensors with half a mind of getting more and seeing how temperature varies throughout my home. I naively thought that since the Xiaomi sensor is BLE then I could add it in Smart Life, but that doesn't seem to work. I've used the firmware flasher to put the custom firmware on it to see if that would help, but not luck.
If you're already comfortable with Docker, setting up ESPHome and Home Assistant should be fairly easy for you, and will unlock lots of options. Depending on the hardware revision of your smartbubls, you might even be able to use Tuya-Convert to install ESPHome or Tasmota on your existing bulbs, and completely cut ties with Tuya and the cloud.
