I've got a single motion sensor, and all light bulbs in the house done with IKEA's TRADFRI bulbs, all bought nearly a year ago. The stack is a zigbee USB stick, Zigbee2MQTT, mosquitto and HA.
The lights are decent, I've had 2 fail so far, but both were on the same spot so I suspect something's wrong there.
The motion sensor has been pretty reliable, still working with no signs of failure. Delays or "dropped" events (the light not turning on) have been very rare and most likely a result of the ancient server I have than the motion sensor itself.

Heads up: you can bind two ZigBee devices directly. So a sensor can trigger a light without requiring a hub to even be on. It can even work across the mesh network.
Several of the Mac apps that I consume seem to use Paddle for licensing, and this seems to solve your issue in regards to the machines likely to run this.
I have absolutely 0 experience with it but from their website it seems like they handle "everything", if that's what's usually understood by being a Merchant of Record.
Jumping on the bandwagon here when it comes to having extensively used both, I second the "Interac/Fax - Pix/Internet" analogy.
I won't get into the actual implementation details of both solutions, but the way Pix changed the finance landscape of Brazil is something else.
The major difference for me personally is the fact that Pix transfers are instant as in instant messaging instead of Interac's (more often than I'd like) 30min transfers.
Also, paying anything via Interac is kind of awkward compared to Pix's UX flows implemented by Brazilian banks. Can't quite explain it but it's there. Pix is one of the things I miss most from Brazil, and I'm glad Canada's Interac is as prevalent as it is otherwise it'd be a huge step down.
On the UX aspect, Brazil’s central bank has a heavy hand over the PIX experience, going as far as publishing the UX Guidelines[1] as Banking Regulation.
Understand your contacts better by knowing their interests. Scailer ethically searches for information about your contacts – profiles, social media sites, etc. – and produces a 360-degree view
I'm sorry but the "ethically searches for information [...] and produces a 360-degree view" is very sketchy at first glance, making me question the "ethically" in it.
Also, why no Linux version? I've been looking for a mail client but that is a deal-breaker for me.
We have updated the web site. Scailer tries to find an avatar and social profile links (linkedin, facebook) of a particular contact in the internet. In order to do that, Scailer takes an email address of a particular contact and sends it to the FullContact service. If additional information is found, FullContact service returns contacts avatars and social profile links to Scailer. Scailer shows avatars of contacts in the left panel. That feature improves Scailer’s user experience. “Ethically” means that Scailer uses only public information: public avatars and public social profile links, and Scailer does not share that information to 3d-parties and does not use it for advertisement. You can find FullContact’s privacy policy here: https://www.fullcontact.com/privacy/privacy-policy/
We are working on Linux version. It will be ready in 2022.
