I have a concern about privacy and costs. One reason why I chose HA. I noticed that the price of devices was going up almost a s fast as the privacy of devices was going down.
So I designed my own switch. The first iteration was aTasmotized ESP-01 and relay module with a 85-260VAC to 5VDC power supply which was pretty straight forward and low cost. But for five bucks more I could have a 1.8" TFT touch screen!
Thus was born the OSD Universal Light Switch (see github)
The idea is that you touch one of six places (key) and the device associated with that key is actuated. Importantly, though, is that one of the keys can bring up another menu of keys. This means that you could have many ULS’s, each ultimately able to control every device in your house.
All for about $12. Well, not quite. You already have HA and probably an MQTT broker (which is easily set up) The concept here, though is that each device has its own actuator, eg, the aforementioned ESP-01/relay, a Tasmotized Sonoff D1 dimmer or a Tasmotized Sonoff Basic R4. So $10 for each device. Count your swtiches and devices, The cost to convert would be less than the price of 4 Leviton switches.
The main downside is that this is DIY and requires skills in soldering and wire wrapping and tools. Plus the case has to be 3D printed.
