Hi everyone. I recently started my Home Assistant journey by replacing Google Calendar and Keep Notes with Home Assistant. A couple of light bulbs burnt out and I want to replace them with bulbs that I can use exclusivity on Home Assistant and bypass the manufacturers app entirely. What brand should I look for?

These are standard wall mounted lights in my kitchen and my laundry room.

Edit: I'm looking to replace burnt bulbs anyway.

I use a hybrid setup. I have a couple of sonoff zigbee switches and some IKEA zigbee bulbs. Work great. Also have a couple of IKEA zigbee smart plugs for decoration lights etc.
