Tasmota vs MQTT

[Akriss (kris)]

This has an answer on another thread asking the same.

What is the difference between the Tasmota integration and the MQTT discovery?

I’m currently using my Tasmota devices using the native MQTT discovery mode offered by earlier versions of Tasmota (I’m on 8.3.1) but I see there’s a new Tasmota integration. What would be the benefit of moving to the new integration? I see that both need a running MQTT server so I can’t see why I would want to switch.

Should help.
