Reminds me of MyQ garage door opener’s fiasco. I wonder if the RatGDO project is still doing good, they were flooded with orders last year.

I’m not familiar with this. What happened?

The Home Assistant blog covered the whole thing very well: https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2023/11/06/removal-of-myq-integration/

damn, that sucks. similar to why people are averse to getting a Lucid car right now. people don't trust that the company will be around in the near future and they'll be left without any support.
