Home Assistant is nice! Have it integrated with some smart lights and smart plugs. Makes it easy to monitor and control everything locally.
We have it set up in our room so that one widget controls the lights, one controls the fans, one controls the monitors, then there's a master button that we use to turn off everything that doesn't need to be always on whenever we leave the room.
Want to play with some fancier stuff with it too, but that alone is incredibly convenient.
Oh yeah totally agree with you. Got a Google Coral stick the other day after waiting for OK prices and it's a really nice game changer if you have cameras around the house. Managed to get notifications when my cats are nearby, all through Home Assistant.
