Yeah, i think its all about use cases.

I use home assistant in a tablet on the kitchen wall, for light control, ev charging and battery level monitoring for mine and my wife's car which is not intuitive or easy in the official app. I use it for our shared calendar. Amd weather updates as well as for monitoring my 3d printer and cctv cameras. I host everything locally. Nothing is in the cloud except for the API i need to monitor the EVs and the weather server. I keep finding new things to use it for. I dont do much automation with it. But i find it very useful overall.
