minus-square4lan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 months agolook into home assistant. you can unlink almost every device from their cloud and run them locally. No internet connection needed. I use it for WAY more than lights. I can monitor and control my 3D printer and weed grow, remotely. Now I have ONE app for all my IOT devices
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoI luckily dont really have any IOT devices
minus-square4lan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·edit-23 months agoI love that my lights turn off 15 minutes after I leave home, and turn on as I enter. I don’t touch light switches ever. also they all dim according to the sun setting and rising, so they are always the perfect brightness. And helps my sleep schedule. When I walk into a friends place at night and the lights are all searingly bright white I cringe
minus-squareWIZARD POPE💫@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoWell I mean you do you. I will not be changing all my lights and such. I have thought of putting home assistant on my little server but I literally have nothing to connect to it except maybe my raspberry pi running octoprint.
