I'm a programmer. I miss my 70s thermostat. Hot/cold/off, temperature, and fan on/auto. Very simple. Just worked.
The smart thermostat is nice, but it's something I'll need to revisit when I have time.
I have smart thermostats. I block 100% of their traffic.
Why?
One winter I woke up to my house being not 70, but 50. BOTH of my units had stalled after a botched firmware update.
I can't trust a multi-billion to fuck my house up while I sleep. not once, not twice.
now they are nice glowing thermostats I can see in the dark that my power company paid for.
couldn't be happier since cutting them off.
