Espressif employee, and I'm not sure what your point is... the absolute amount of Western people working for us in Shanghai has only gone up on average, and globally it has skyrocketed (relatively speaking) since we opened thriving offices in Brno (Czech republic) and Puna (India).

It appears, at least in EU and US markets Tuya, and others, have 'abandoned' Espressif ( mostly replacing it with Realtek ICs) for their IoT solutions. It's nice to hear that Espressif is sound and well.

Which ones?

You can see the list here: https://developer.tuya.com/en/docs/iot-device-dev/hardware?i...

Most devices use modules based on above: https://solution.tuya.com/hardware

Some Tuya modules are compatible with ESP12F footprint so they can be converted to tasmota or esphome by de-soldering.
