Mushroom cards Local Tuya - so I can control my Tuya Devices without needing the cloud.
Wyze - I have a couple of cameras which are Wyze so I use it for those. I'm not against the cloud for some things. :) Spook - not your homie -- When I deactivate or rename a device (seasonally), it lets me know which dashboards need updated for example. Playstation Network - so I can show what my PS5 and PS4 are doing while active. Several other items such as themes I've tried out and probably more I've tried but never removed.
