Migrating Insteon from ISY to HA?

Configuration
1

My ISY994i pro is starting to glitch and I'd very much like to not be dependent on UDI for yet another piece of hardware that I'll just have to replace in a few years.

I see my two main choices are 1) Use a PLM directly or 2) Get a Hub 2 and then integrate HA with the Hub.

I'd rather integrate directly with the PLM but it seems native Insteon scene management may be an issue unless this has been implemented in HA since. Otherwise if I want native scene management, I'd have to go Hub 2 which kind of sucks since that's the only thing I'd be using the Hub for.

Has anyone done an ISY to HA migration with stories to share?

Last summer, I migrated my Insteon setup from UDI ISY994i to using Home Assistant directly. With the Insteon integration, I realized that my ISY994i was no longer needed.

My Insteon PLM 2413S connects directly to Home Assistant through an interface cable.

I only have two Insteon scenes at the moment but they work well for me. I highly recommend this method of using the Insteon integration and connecting the PLM to HA.
