Tried a couple matter devices. Ended up having to create an account with the manufacturer. Was there truly a local option? Who knows. So far I haven't been impressed.

Opposite experience, only 2 Matter devices so far but both working on HA with external network access cut off in my router after I previously had them in Tuya.

@missphant I have 7 devices connected via #Matter over WiFi to a #HomeAssistant instance. They are happily working fine alongside each other and playing nicely with #Zigbee devices and others. Seems pretty solid, and unlike other devices I’ve had in the past, they are not constantly phoning home (like my light dimmers). I use #PiHole as well as a firewall to lock things down, e.g., by keeping the chatty light dimmers on their own isolated subnet.

I've had to do that so I could install new firmware to enable matter, but after that didn't need to access the manufacturer account anymore.
