I kinda did, but also kinda didn’t…
A few years ago I made the call to have HA as my ‘backend’ - all devices are integrated there and then I bridge them to HomeKit to act as the primary frontend.
I wanted something my partner would be familiar with and something native to the devices we already use (Apple lock in is real).
I also use HA for all automations that don’t need us to interact with (lights w/ presence, default light brightness etc).
Then the home app has scenes/automations that are less fixed/permanent.
I think of HA as the advanced view with way more grunt and almost limitless potential with home(kit) being a nice constraint to build the smart home into something usable by the non-techies in my life.
HA is getting better on this front but until Apple allows native integration (lol) it’ll be hard for them to get all the way there imo.
