The problem with matter is that EVERY update to a device must be certified and that costs money.

So brands are sticking with the proprietary hub model so they can iterate faster

Also you need to pay (18k/year iirc) in addition to that as well. Next to the fact that matter itself is quite convoluted from an implementation standpoint.

It’s really not made with things like startups or niche products in mind. It’s really a standard by and for the big companies
