Strip lighting with ZBT-2 (programming.dev)

Hey all Just getting started on some smart home stuff - I'm looking to get some strip lighting and there is a lot of stuff out there and honestly I'm not sure what I should get. Ideally it would be RGB but I'm OK with white/warm light.

The ZBT-2 can do both ZigBee and Thread, and I haven't got any pre-existing devices so I can go either of those.

I thought about getting some IKEA lighting because I believe they use Thread now?

What's the prevailing wisdom out there?
