I am surprised to see how overwhelmingly popular Tuya devices are for Home Assistant users. It appears that devices using the official integration are very combersome to setup, they are cloud dependent, and they will often need to be re-setup due to a re-acceptance of the ToS.

Are people actively buying these devices? Are a lot of homes setup with legacy Tuya devices?

I personally have no Tuya devices in my home and after reading the integration page, I would actively avoid them. https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/tuya

The integration page shows that Tuya is used by 29.2% of active installations and the number of devices from the graph show a huge gap between Tuya and all other devices. This leads me to think that these devices would be prioritized by the developers. Am I missing something? Are these devices so cheap that they are just worth it for many to deal with the consequences of the cloud and apparent hassle of setup?

The stock kickstand on my Yuba Spicy Curry has been feeling shorter for some time lately, and the bike has not been staying put on slight inclines. Recently the right plastic piece fell off and then I realized it had been ground down to the metal. So I glued it back on upside down, and ripped the left side off and did the same. I expect this will give me a few months to figure something more permanent out.

I was just at my local bike shop for my first service appointment. While there they informed me that the plastic end pieces are out of stock at Yuba...

Looking further into replacements, this is all I could really find on the web: https://www.amazon.com/Shepherd-Hardware-9115-1-Inch-Plastic/dp/B000I17D38/ and that thing is for chairs.

Truly, I would like to find something more substantial, and a little thicker to give me an extra 1/4 inch lift to keep the bike stable on uneven ground and steeper grades.

FYI, this kickstand is stock on the spicy curry, but it is either included or compatible with the sweet curry, mundo, boda, and kombi.
