There are so many technologies and protocols out there… Zigbee, Matter/Thread, ZWave, IP(?) etc. There are probably ones that I don’t even know about.

In an ideal world one would just pick one and just go with it. Do people generally run a mix of protocols?

I have some Zigbee, IP based devices, Wemo(?), etc.

Is there a con for running multiple standards? I’m thinking about adding Matter/Thread and ZWave devices. Some of the reasoning is bc I want to see how well they work.
