I do share your concerns, but I only wanted to point out if you want to talk to Athom (and be heard), you’d really write to [https://homey.app/support](https://homey.app/support).

I started also with HA for this reason, while it _really is_ local only, and I’m quite concerned about the possibility of bankruptcy (see [ThermoSmart debacle](https://community.homey.app/t/app-thermosmart-faillissement-2023-en-overname-plugwise-nl/92703), or what about the _ **vanMoof** _ cloud just taken down, and no one caring a f\*ck about their customers), or Athom heading an other direction one day, and they let go of “the Athom/Homey cloud”, just like that.

I own a Pro 2019, and Athom support told me it could be managed for max. 2 weeks without their cloud. It is not much better for the Pro 2023 so it seems.  
But, one part of the marketing yells is true if I’m right: when Home runs unattended, it does not need the cloud (if you don’t use cloud based apps that is).
