We need to lobotomize our "smart" devices ...

There need to be open source "smart" devices. Like, I've read and edited the source code running on my 3D printer. I was able to do that in my own home because it's got an Arduino Mega for a motherboard.

I have a couple ESP32s, and the main thing that concerns me is that they utterly rely on the ESP-IDF toolchain. It runs on Espressif's RTOS basically no matter what. They're capable if weird little microcontrollers but they just slightly sketch me out.
