Oh dammit.
Also, weird timing, since all their bulbs are about to get Matter compatibility. I guess it’s their last big push to register users before the ecosystem opens up?
I like Hue, for pioneering the smart-light space and for the fact that I’ve never had one their bulbs die on me yet, but I’d rather switch to a brand that doesn’t try to pull a dirty trick every so often. (Wow, it’s been *eight years* since they tried to kill support for third-party bulbs?)

Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.ff00aa.com to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
