Didn't Google change a load of the nest permissions so home assistant functionality broke? I think they've launched a new API since then (for a small charge) but obviously you're hoping Google doesn't break it again.

The main question is probably whether you want it all controlled by/notifications from home assistant, in which case you can go with basic stuff, or you want the Google, eufy, etc app to do that?

It would be nice to have an easy to access stream in their own app for the missus to use, but something with enough useable homeassistant sensors that it is useful for other automations.

The google API is meant to be very good but who knows how long it will last.

I've been playing around with TP Link stuff which seems good for the price, although annoyingly is split between Kasa and Tapo without any links between the two (apart from Home Assistant).
