Matter 1.4 tries to set the smart home standard back on track
(www.theverge.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I just want to buy home automation gadgets that don't need a bloody cloud account to work.

Zwave and zigbee have never needed a cloud.
They might be older tech, but they're pretty rock solid.
