I’m choosing devices based on how good they work with zha and HA and usually have to browse a bit before settling for something. If they manage to implement this properly, I’m all here for it.
Maybe they should talk to the zigbee device compatibility repository people (or maybe they already have).



Is there a place to view the device database yet or is that coming soon?
You can have a look here: https://zigbee.blakadder.com/ This not the database mentioned here, but a community effort for several systems. HA database has to be better than this to be useful.
Seems to be the latter, it’ll show up in HA labs in the Feb release iirc
