Alternate networks to Google Home shit

So I'm about out of patience with the google home network. I've had it for six years (I never wanted cameras or voice activation or any of that shit, I'm a fucking grownup who can open his own front door and turn on his own light switches). I just have six little short white cylinders that I was thrilled to find, six years ago, would just mesh together and work... but only in the first year was there a decent interface to control them. And as support for them has steadily enshittified I've raged more and more until I'm completely out of patience now. I want a home network that i can manage from a desktop computer. I have this babytalk tablet app that will basically say "yep you have a netowrk" and that's it, because basically all tablet interfaces suck for anything that isn't CandyCrush level mindlessness.

I want control over the fking network installed in my fking home. What are the better alternatives are out there to these impenetrable white pieces of crap that don't allow decent network management? What do people recommend for making an exodus from google home?
