Just a small update after a longer period — I don’t have a lot of new findings to share, but happy to pass on some of the experiences I’ve had along the way.

Since I stopped auto-updating and started keeping a closer eye on what’s in each update before applying it, I feel more in control of my setup. I shared some thoughts on that in [this comment](https://community.homey.app/t/the-homey-podcast-megathread/113474/273) in the podcast thread.

It’s a bit unfortunate to see these challenges showing up primarily on Homey — both Athom and IKEA deserve better, and I’m sure they’re working on it. Matter has so much potential, and getting it rock solid would be a win for everyone. 🤞

One thought I’ve been playing with: since Zigbee and Thread share the same radio on Homey Pro, I’m curious whether offloading Zigbee to a separate coordinator via Zigbee2MQTT would free up the radio enough to make Matter/Thread more stable. Just a theory at this point — but might be worth exploring.
