Yes. And next to that you can see a Raspberry Pi (you can clearly see its GPIO pins and ports). The bigger device is likely a NAS. The announcement is almost certainly about the Homey SHS, see: > [@Homey SHS Self Hosted Server](https://community.homey.app/t/homey-shs-self-hosted-server/146695): > > UPDATE 12-12-2025 Hereā€™s a summary of what we know so far: There is a reference in the Web App code to subscription.

Here are some screenshots: To me, this seems more like a prototype/test that accidentally got into a production build.

Presuming itā€™s a self-hosted server and you can then effectively run your own Homey Pro on a selection of other hardware then I guess the Homey Bridge will be the prime option to add support for Z Wave, Zigbee, Infrared, 433, Bluetooth just as this works with the Homey Pro Mini. But what about Matter over Thread? The Homey Bridge doesnā€™t (yet!) support that I think?
