I installed the SwitchBot Bot on my kitchen ceiling lights switch. By itself it can run over Bluetooth, but I paired it with the SwitchBot Hub 2 which allows WiFi control.

It really works (so far). It'll be interesting to see how the battery life is; it runs on just a coin battery. 😬

It's Matter compatible (with the hub). I got it into Apple Home that way, but Google and Home Assistant are possible too, apparently.

WHY THE FUCK does Siri on a HomePod have to go to the FUCKING INTERNET to turn off a FUCKING LIGHT in the SAME FUCKING HOUSE? That’s rank fucking incompetence and it’s been tolerated—nay, enabled—by a complacent press for way too fucking long. You could do this in the mid-late 1990s on a PowerMac without round-trips.
