    I’m a tech worker, and I’ve got tons of smart things. They’re just all local. (Except my garage door opener. Man, fuck LiftMaster. Oh and my thermostat. Ecobee is ok, but I wish they would offer a local only option.)

      RatGDO is a local ESP device you can hook into a LiftMaster to connect it to WiFi in a better way. Highly recommend.

        This is awesome, as a small garage door business owner, I may start bringing these up. Though, I may be one of the few people that cares about this.

        I may get one, I’ve kept dumb motors for a long time to avoid any bs subscription to open my efing door.

        I second that. Chamberlain’s/Liftmaster’s MyQ app grows more ad-infested by the day and the RatGDO gives you local control (no cloud required)

      Hopefully with Matter becoming more popular, it’ll make it easier to standardize local IoT devices.
