I love connecting everything to my home assistant hub, I find all sorts of stupid but fun automations I can do with them

For some annoying reasons though, every major appliance wants to connect to a server somewhere else instead of just to the hub in my home and I absolutely hate that.

@gbargoud @inthehands Yeah, I should clarify if you have some devices like lightbulbs or whatever which are good citzens on a local network only, that's fine. I have a couple of LIFX bulbs in the house.

I went real hard on home automation a year or so ago and realized that when it's fully under our household's control, IoT is everything we were promised in 90s visions of the future.

Makes me even more annoyed each time it's not
