    If there’s a way to get a Nest thermostat to my own server instead of Google’s, I’d love to hear it. I’ve had a good experience so far, but it would be nice to have a backup ready in case Google ever pulls the plug on the service.

      That used to be an option, but when Google bought Nest they shut down the API for new people. There are probably still people out there with it integrated (locally) into Home Assistant, so any tutorials you find are probably for that.
