I spend like 2 years fighting Nanoleaf bulbs with Apple Home. I really wanted matter over thread lights to work. It was frequent disconnections and issues. After 2 years of that, I decided the only thing that mattered was my smart lights turning on and off as close to instant as possible.

I’m not crazy about the idea of Phillips Hue with their proprietary bridge. But damn the stability is very good. I plugged a bulb back in the other day that got unplugged, and it connected to the hub in <10 seconds. Contrast that with Nanoleaf which would sometimes take minutes to recover from a disconnection.

Idk what the point of this is other than to say, I’m happy I made the switch.
