I too balked at the absurd complexity in the HomeAssistant stack, and it's kinda kept me off the "smart home" train because I refuse to buy into somebody's walled garden.
As a result the sum total of smartness in my home is... A little STM32 Blue Pill that reports whether or not the basement door is locked or not. Yay?
Edit: oh and the raspberry pi that measures the moisture in the soil of my beloved Norfolk Island Spruce and tells me over IRC when it needs water.
