The other day, @tifriis@sh.itjust.works posted an awesome article about Zigbee network performance and it brought attention to something I was unaware of, which is that my devices aren't supposed to shout all day, everyday about doing mostly nothing. I immediately followed the advice in the article and tried to debounce everything. But then everything stopped working like it should 😂 Can the community pool your collective knowledge and walk me through debouncing so I can not get MQTT spam but still have all my motion, presence and temperature sensors work please?

You know what would be useful? A link to the article you’re referring to. I’m guessing https://smarthomescene.com/guides/how-to-build-a-stable-and-robust-zigbee-network/

but that doesn’t contain the word ‘debouncing’, so >shrug<

My bad, didn't think it would be important.

In the article, it talks about Tuya and their off key implementation of Zigbee and then links to this article https://smarthomescene.com/reviews/moes-linptech-presence-sensor-zss-lp-hp02-review/#zigbee-network-spam

In that article:

The only “workaround” I can think of is to use a better coordinator (EFR32MG21) and have many routers deployed in your network, so this device doesn’t crash it.

I have that coordinator and luckily my network is robust, but it's not snappy and I have to restart it every few days so I'm trying to think of things to mitigate the shiteness.
