That's what I'm working towards right now. We just sold our home and I left all my SmartThings installed for the new guy.

The gift thst keeps on giving :)

I opted out about the time they were releasing their second gen hub, so it's been a while now. I'm on my second iteration of HA hardware (rpi5) now. Still have old iris window sensors I bought way back when I had ST. (From lowes). Their biggest issue is the battery life on them kinda sucks.

I will miss the water sensors though. Those plus IFTTT were so good at alerting us and shutting off the water. Any suggestions for replacing those? I use HA currently

Idk about the shut off but I liked the third reality sensors

I am not using any water sensors, so can't speak to that

Hey me too. Well, left it all for my ex but yeah. I'll be switching to home assistant once I get some of the more pricy renovation stuff done here.
