What exactly are you referring to? I've used hue for a few rooms in my house for years now,and have them integrated with home assistant just fine. I use schedules with conditionals, and have a few buttons on my stream deck in my office and it's pretty reliable.

I feel the better route to go now is smart switches, but since I have a few rooms already with bulbs, I'm tempted here to get another 12-16 to finish up the larger main rooms of the house
I went through like 8 different "smartish" systems and got fed up and paid extra for all Hue stuff with my Alexa. No issues at all.

Also interested in cooler temp and adjustments if possible

I think they are the 2700k non tunable. Those are called white ambiance.

What does this made up marketing-speak "Hue White" mean? Is the color temperature fixed or tunable?
This Hue white can only dim but not be able to change temperature of the white light - not variable temperature. I believe they are soft white which means it's 2700K in temperature. This would provide a pleasant warm lighting and not harsh bluish white. I hope this helps.

I assume by HA you mean home assistant. I must have missed the controversy, but what is the issue with Hue? I have a whole bunch of Hue bulbs all the way back to Gen 1, and they integrate just fine with home assistant. In fact, I just bought six more BR30 from the 20% off deal and every single new bulb I added showed up in home assistant without me having to do anything. The Philips hue integration picked up everything automatically.

With home assistant do you have to use their hub, or can you use the integration with just a zigbee stick? I've always used standard zigbee bulbs. Used hue once with smart things, but it did not work well.

You can use your own zigbee dongle. I've not tried it yet, but this thread has more information. However, it doesn't seem like there's much advantage to doing that as you should still get local control even with the hue hub.

Hue forces you to now link your hue smart hub to their online servers. It caused a big backlash because they gave a non believable excuse that it is all for your security and not for data collection.

Regardless, if interested, you can circumvent the system by installing a slightly older version of the Hue app so that it can't force you to log in. I'm also finding the older app is more reliable, go figure.
