So building new home. Its a small aframe up on the side of a mtn. Don’t need anything fancy like multi zone. Only need on/off with dimming. Buying switches for the main lights and am thinking its one of the following two.

Will be running a home assistant yellow and with a zwave dongle i believe. Any input? People like these switches? Would i be better off with zigbee or matter?

Im a noob so thanks for the help!

Keep in mind more and more devices also seem to come with their own Wi-Fi internally adding to the overall noise even if you’re secluded.

From tv set top boxes, appliances, light bulbs and even cable internet modems where it’s on and the provider won’t disable it
