Problem is most mechanical locks aren't very good either. See lock picking lawyer on YouTube. Plus, the weakest link in electronic infrastructure is often physical. I can't find it right now, but there are some pretty amusing red team videos on YouTube of various physical vulnerabilities. I think people know more about the shortcomings of their particular area, so are more likely to use the things they don't specialize in.

Yep, completely true for me at least. I have a colleague who has everything smart though, so it's certainly not everyone, but I keep my house intentionally as dumb as possible. The only household thing I have that is "smart" is my robot vacuum, but we hardly ever use it anymore because doing it with a good old fashioned vacuum cleaner is so much quicker.

I was so confused at first with the mechanical windows... (i thought they where talking about the OS)
Can indeed confirm. I'm the first (tech enthusiast), slowly becoming the second. My dad is the second. He upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 a few months ago. Like he knows tech, he just cbf about it. I was the first but then realized that smart home stuff is not worth it for my usecase.
Can confirm.
I have no home automation stuff. My tech at home is a
disconnected from the Internet wired home security camera.
Dd-wrt on the router.
The only real techy thing I have is a pihole running a raspberry pi. Other than that my house is dumb. I despise my smart tvs because I can't control them (webos).
I hate wireless tech
