Logitech Harmony discontinued

nope…
The problem with the broadlink is that is only a hub, there is no remote.
You have to control it by an app (or homey), for me the main thing is that i still have a decent actual remote control with REAL buttons for controlling my multimedia devices.

I don’t want to change channels using voice or my phone etc, i want to push a real button to zap around and control my volume…

The home automation should support my actions, not control it.
So when i change my activity then it may react on it (dim lights when watching movie etc) but i am in control of the screen and sound using a real remote. (a touch screen does not work great on daily use of a tv)

Until my knowledge harmony is the only brand which actually do this…

Luckily i got 2 hubs and 2 remotes (elite and ultimate), so should the most important one fail (the one in the living room) i always can replace it with the one from my bedroom (which i hardly ever use).
