Hi everyone. I recently started my Home Assistant journey by replacing Google Calendar and Keep Notes with Home Assistant. A couple of light bulbs burnt out and I want to replace them with bulbs that I can use exclusivity on Home Assistant and bypass the manufacturers app entirely. What brand should I look for?

These are standard wall mounted lights in my kitchen and my laundry room.

Edit: I’m looking to replace burnt bulbs anyway.

    Smart switches, dumb bulbs if you don’t need colour/temperature/brightness support. Cheapest way to go is probably Zigbee using Zigbee2MQTT or ZHA

        I guess I’ve already answered that one. You should probably choose whatever fits you, I don’t think anyone can make any recommendations on the dumb bulbs not knowing where you are
