If esphome get matter and thread, the DIY smart home device ecosystem will go from great to amazing. Right now esphome just has trouble with truly low power devices due to WiFi, polling, standoff, sleep, etc... Matter instead of the esphome API will probably solve a lot of that.
ESPHome has supported Thread since 2025.6.0b1. But Matter support still need more time.
