How on EARTH did I not know esphome existed?! Why am I bothering with this heterogeneous plate of home coded ESP and Arduino spaghetti throughout my house?!

Thanks for sharing!

I do love ESPhome, but I don't know why they don't support a simple PIR sensor.
A simple pir sensor just has a digital out that is either high or low. That is supported as a digital in sensor. Only for devices with a more complicated protocol (mostly i2c, spi and uart) you need a special sensor specific integration
Oh is it? I tried to look for that but couldn't find it, thanks!

I can't wait for it to get Zigbee support!
