I wanted to go to IKEA next week to buy some smart bulbs (and some other stuff, candles mostly) for the remainder of my lamps which don’t have them yet. Unfortunately they are all Matter/Thread only now and the ones I have already were Zigbee (like the rest of nearly all my smartphone devices) and my ZBT-1 (my Zigbee router for Home Assistant) can’t be used for both at the same time, only for either Zigbee or Matter/Thread.
I guess I will buy the new ZBT-2 to run that as my Matter/Thread router and keep the old one for Zigbee to have backwards compatibility. And I will also slowly migrate to Matter? I don’t know. I don’t like having so many different technologies. At least now they seem to have compromised on a standard and are keeping that (hopefully).
