I think there is not enough automation in home automation. Is controlling your home from a PC/smartphone/touch screen/vocal assistant automation? No it isn't. Smart home devices are designed to speak to the world and we barely made them speak to each other, isn't it weird? Have you ever tried to re-use an automation created by someone else with, as an example, Home Assistant or Node Red? Was it an easy job? Are you satisfied with it? The tough work in home automation is creating useful and user friendly automations. We should collaborate to enhance the automations and the user experience instead of competing on the best protocol. I hope that the ideas behind my proof of concept could be used in that direction.
