Using Mbin as a backup to my main Kbin account due to tech issues on Kbin.social. May either switch to this one permanently or abandon it, depending on how Kbin’s development goes. All my active fedi accounts are linked.

Try looking for “smart buttons”. There’s nothing particularly “smart” about them, but they’re called that because they’re meant to connect to smart home devices like lights and switches and such. They’re relatively inexpensive, and while some of them are locked down to specific platforms like Hue and such, some of them are a bit more “open” and will just act as a basic, programmable button that can connect to another device/network and may require some Tasker fiddling to get working correctly.
If you don’t need the buttons to be spread out across multiple locations, you could also look into a macro pad of some sort, which is basically just a keyboard with keys that you can assign various functions to. Those will typically require a PC, but can handle a lot of automated tasks pretty effectively, too.
