group.all_devices was useful in appdaemon to set a listen state for when someone arrives home or everyone leaves.

What’s the preferred method now?

make use of the presence functions that AD has. (everyone_home(), noone_home(), anyone_home() )
and the presence constraint functions

@so3n

Group.all_lights, and group.all_switches was also useful in appdaemon to turn off a mixture of different platforms (eg lights and switches) and mixture of groups and individual entities specified in apps.yaml.

What is the preferred method now?

with get_state you can get a dict with all lights or all switches, which then can be used to turn off.
