I tried home assistant a while ago and I couldn't wrap my head around yaml that it uses and I couldn't seem to get conditionals to work like I wanted them too. I'm not a great coder but it was not nearly as easy as I wanted it to be.
Id recommend giving hubitat a try then. Its more gui focused, with tasks being "if this, then that, except if..."
They support a wide range of apps/devices out of the box, but also have direct to import community code/addons. A lot of the smartthings devs moved over to hubitat, so the community is solid.
Unless youre in a rush, they often have $100/hub sales around major holidays too.
