That's despicable.

I bought a Harmony Hub a while ago to turn my projector on and off (and set my stereo to the right input) with Amazon Alexa. The UI and setup process are really terrible. Can anyone recommend a good alternative?

(I actually intended it just as a stopgap until I hack my own IoT IR blaster, but haven't gotten around to it)

Seems you have your answer right there. Time to get hacking!

I am not aware of any serious competition. But it seems like a fairly simple product for a startup to create, and the market is probably huge.
