Using SwitchBot bot/curtain/meter/contact/motion MQTT ESP32 bridge - Local control for close to a year now with a standard switchbot, solid as a rock. I did give the direct native HA integration another try after the re-release of bluetooth support later last year, but it’s still no comparison.
Yes, it’s somehow sad that you need an extra esp32 for that approach, but as mentioned: never failed me once.
