Another plug for Hubitat: https://hubitat.com/

Does Zwave and Zigbee with Matter on the way at some point. HomeKit integration is in beta right now.

My fear is that Philips will do something stupid by pushing a firmware to the bulbs to lock folks into only using their hubs. Or maybe change colour reporting to some annoying method that won’t allow for accurate colour on a non-Hue hub.

The enshittification continues.

Priced decent. Where do you pair new stuff? In their interface or homekit?

Idk the hardware specs are pretty anemic for $150. OK I guess if you don't have any other device laying around. Zigbee USB adapters are $15 on Amazon

Do you have a link or a brand/model? I'm just recently shopping for smart home equipment and the Hubitat seems quite full-featured and I'd like to compare.
