I have a few of those things, thankfully none of mine have done that (using a widespread Tuya chipset). I won't use them for anything critical, or risky. Just a few light bulbs and a pedestal fan. I'd never trust them on something that might be a fire risk (heaters), or requires stability (computing equipment). I wish I could hack them to be controlled by Linux in my LAN, rather than some server on the internet which might decide they're wasting too much money supporting hardware you bought a few years back. Since I do have a PC on 24/7 it's certainly feasible in my situation. And other people have things like Raspberry Pies that they're happy to leave one running all the time. -- NB: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
