Comment on Logitech will brick its $100 Pop smart home buttons on October 15 - Ars Technica
AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 6 days agoDepends on your definition of "smart’ I guess. ZigBee stuff like buttons and the like probably won’t become obsolete for a long time. I guess you could argue that ZigBee protocol updates could eventually brick them though

The trick is to buy reasonably open devices, then provide the smarts yourself.
If it can talk to / be configured by HomeAssistant, and doesn’t require internet to work, it’ll probably be fine.
