Use local open-source smart home hubs (like Home Assistant) with smart plugs
Bypass mandatory cloud apps and Wi-Fi lock-ins by connecting home appliances to local Matter/Zigbee smart plugs managed via an offline home server. This isolates smart home hardware on a local network, prevents unexpected firmware breakages, and ensures full mechanical control without cloud account requirements.
