I have three Homey’s (the white ball, a 2023 model, and a Special Edition Homey that I won in the [Homey Community Awards](https://community.homey.app/t/the-homey-community-awards/144110) that I have yet to unbox 🥴) that literally do nothing (other than running tests for my apps whenever I update them), and haven’t done so in a long time. I migrated to Home Assistant completely years ago.
