For home automation, Matter/Thread has the potential. We’ll see over the next five years, but yes market forces can make a new standard work

Reasons I’m hopeful

  • this is the first time major companies are involved: Apple, Google, Amazon agree
  • first time home automation hubs “just happen”, with the millions of people who have Echo, Google Home, Apple devices
  • small companies that dominate home automation seem to realize the problem of the market can’t reasonably expand without interoperability and ease of use

Matter/Thread is the new kid on the block. Will it be yet another home automation standard, or will it gradually replace the previous ones? We’ll see.

The only place I have seen thread mentioned before was this blog post: https://overengineer.dev/blog/2024/05/10/thread/

If you’ve seen anything about Matter, it most likely talks about Thread as well. They usually go together
