Question

Hi there!
I'm just returning to Fibaro now, with the HC3 up and running for a few days. I used HC2 from 2012 to 2018 when it died. Using Homey since that. Now, I'm curious about HC3 and the new possibilities with QuickApps.
No doubt, Fibaro HC is the best for controlling my 60+ mostly Fibaro z-wave devices. But in the past, integration with SONOS, HUE, Alarm systems, Door locks, Video door bells etc was poor. That integration is better elsewhere.
Now, with QuickApps, can we expect to see better "plugins" for these kind of IP/API devices? I.e. better than the rudimentary version 1.0 plugins of the past, that's never maintained?
I'd love to hear that smart speakers, be it Sonos or Google Home or Alexa, could fully intregrate audio output from my smart home system. Both TTS announcements and sound output from scenes. In a simple and usable way. (I know this has somewhat been possible for years through special VDs with much hassle, but I was never able to make it work properly.)
Same goes for Hue, sensors and actors.
Or IKEA smart products like blinds.
And connecting Alarm systems with 2-way communication for sensor status etc.
And a QuickApp for my ventilation system.
What do you think? Am I too optimistic??
Regards,
Ole Kenneth
