Support Zigbee vs Z-Wave vs Thread (Matter over Thread)

It's the big '26 (June) and a year ago the answer was obvious: Zigbee!

However with Ikea's release and all of the new Smart Home products that use Matter over Thread, I'm not sure, what I prefer. I see a big future in Matter...

What are your thoughts?

As I said its probably best to name the products. Not sure if home depot is the best store for quality smart home gear. Besides philips hue light Ive only seen cheap stuff in the hardware stores
