That parallel universe exists its just on aliexpress.com not amazon.com. Cheap hardware and open protocols as promised.


Fair but how many hours of tinkering do you need to do to maintain them...


Not much at all. Setup is pretty easy with a lot of guides out there for setting up open hardware on open standards.

Way better than the alternative where the company decides to push an update no one asked for and breaks some feature you relied upon or enshittifies the device without your consent.
