Amount of requests with Tuya switch

I setup a Tuya switch last week and it is working like a charm since then. The problem is that, after looking into Pi-Hole statistics, I saw that there are a lot of requests to the Tuya servers (px1.tuyaeu.com).
This is a screenshot of today’s requests:

Is this supposed to be normal? It’s almost the 80% of the requests in my machine.

I have exactly the same thing going on here. Certainly not a fan. Looking for other alternatives.

There are some guides on the forums with instructions on how to extract the local key.

I followed this one: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/alternative-tuya-smart-outlet-setup/51830

with a few modifications and now my outlets are all controlled 100% locally.

Thanks for that. Will check it out.

Awesome! Just followed the tutorial and got the localKey, but the link to the custom component is down.
