I ended up going with a Nest Gen 2 running NoLongerevil Firmware in the end, but the Meross Matter Thermostat was super easy to set up and rock solid on connection for the week I had it installed. Meross app is decent as well.

Each row is one report from a GitHub thread, an integration’s docs, or r/homeassistant. Check the date and the linked source before you buy.

In ReReHome

Once Home Assistant’s HomeKit Bridge shares it, this device reaches Apple Home as a HomeKit accessory behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls it like any other.
