- 05 1y agoESPHome isn't really Espressif exclusive, there's Beken support already, which most cheap Chinese IoT gadgets use nowadays. And there are 'made for esphome' products which is a safer bet than buying Sonoff and praying the ESP32 inside doesn't have its secure boot bits fused.
- ihattendorf 1y agoESPHome is owned by the same group as Home Assistant, not Espressif. So Espressif getting greedy would just mean higher prices for their chips (or they could lock down development on their chips, but that seems very unlikely).
