Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 week agoI use some not-as-smart smart bulbs that allow me to use all sorts of FOSS alternatives to control them which I only lucked out into getting since I was planning on getting Philips Hue, but these that I got (Wiz iirc; I don’t use the official software so I am not constsntly reminded of the brand) were half as expensive so I was able to get more of 'em.

the funny thing is that Wiz is also a philips brand, so it’s basically philips hue but less shit.
For the record i do use the official software because i’m poor enough that setting up homeassistant is out of reach, and it’s remarkably okay. It actually works without internet, so long as you sign in with a third party account (which is moronic and i don’t like it at all, but whatever).
