I actually don’t mind the seperate control as it’s not a huge hassle to have automatons do both and I found some usecases to just open or close one (for example if a door is still open on one side of the curtain). So I do hope individual control will be perhaps something next to getting duo control back.
But I’ve mainly found that even with the new version switchbot remains exceptionally unreliable native. Even my Humidity sensor, that always worked fine, now loses it’s connection. Curtains seemed to work fine the first day or two, but also started to stop responding most of the time.
I think I will switch back to the ESP bridge between Switchbot and MQTT. It just continues to be to unreliable unfortunatly nativly. While the ESP solution seems very stable (can curtains remain working in duo)
