I prefer rpm over flatpak. at least I know any os dependency updates are happening regularly, flatpak may not get weekly dependency updates from proton

+1 for UPS. So many PC gamers on reddit crying about their build getting fried by a power fluctuation. I never understood somebody that would drop 2-3k on a graphics card but not $300 on clean power delivery
I was going.to auggest a hardware key, but I fear they would add it as another layer rather than as a replacement for this nonsense
It really depends on what distro you choose because they are different Operating Systems using the same kernel and somewhat similar structure. Some are meant to have lots of user input and tweaking, some come ready to go with no real need to mess under the hood. I.e. Gentoo you will compile stuff, nixOS you will setup a config file or two, arch you might do tweaks after bleeding edge updates need some fiddling, then there is OpenSUSE where you have GUI for all settings and never need to edit files manually.
Part of the linux experience is trying a bunch and finding one that suits your interest.
Im using homeassistant also, just used the git code to change their built in server lookup, and associate them to wifi
Watched a few at a friends house, then one day he was like " we ahouldn't watch these anymore ". So I said "Oh did your parents find out?". He was crestfallen and said " No...the one tape I put in to watch, had my parents doing it". I felt so bad for the guy.
It does work for many not listed, but no guarantees from the dev. And there are some sold where the firmware version blocks this path. But I have had success with six separate plugs and a dimmer. None were listed in the supported product numbers
I found this on github to activate tplink kasa plugs and switches to a local IP and never phone home. It swaps the internal server lookup, and allows you to Activate to your wifi SSID with no app https://github.com/jkbenaim/hs100
This is why I buy TpLink Kasa switches and plugs and use the hs100 code on github to activate them only to local server, so they never phone home to tplink servers.
Yeah, I was dissapointed, but at least it is a controlled browser and not reliant on your normal browser which could change or have malicious extensions
