Anyone here mess with Homebridge at all?

This has gotten my attention. I'm not sure how much I want to implement it because it starts to move away from the "it just works" concept but I'm thinking there could be some real benefit to having this running. The fact that it can run on a Raspberry Pi is indicative of the low CPU demand. Apparently this only changes when you go to camera streaming though. At that point the CPU needs increase.

Also, I can't recommend Meross at all now. So often I'm having to kill the breaker to "reboot" the switches or unplug the outlets. Such a pain though it isn't daily, just way more frequent than the cost savings I saw in the beginning. Still great for the basement stuff though!
