I hate embedded smart stuff in devices in general as they always get support dropped way too soon (and often enshittified with updates as demonstrated), but as a concept a fridge that would keep track what’s in it, their expiration dates, and auto-updated a shopping list when something is used up would actually be really handy.
Wanted to make some pasta few nights back but I was out of cheese and the cream had expired, so instant noodles for dinner it was. Again.
A refrigerator has to do two things.
I want my fridge to be as dumb as possible.

I would prefer the light didn’t come on tbh, too bright and people can see me through the front window looking for snacks in the dark
I mean, give me some health metrics over ZigBee…
