Well, we have the new event entities so this is just a state change nowadays. Problem is that we do no longer provide "hints" to make automations, its all a bit cumbersome, I totally agree.
I do not have access to a matter switch/remote so the support for it I had to code a bit in the blind, using a Hue dimmer switch connected to a matter bridged Hue bridge which in turn has no support for multi press.
How it should work is that you receive an event like "button pressed" or "button pressed multiple times" and then there's an attribute telling you how many times it was pressed.
You can use that in the automation

I guess I need a bit more detail on how to automate with the button....I can't figure it out.

It’s a bit offtopic. But I have 10 Hue Dimmer switches in my House. They are connected to a HueBridge. When I use the IOS app iConnectHue it’s possible to configure double/tripple/quadruple presses and it works fine. Do you see any chance to get this working in HA without using ZHA, Decons, Zigebee2MQTT?

The native Hue api nor their matter bridge exposes that info so my guess is that iConnectHue is just using a timer and counter under the hood. Also a Hue dimmer switch connected to ZHA/Z2M wont expose that info. You're only option is to create a smart automation/blueprint to do this with counting the presses and checking the timeframe

There are definitely Blueprints that support double presses. But yes, it maybe true that they implemented a counter/timeframes.
Sorry, this is completely offtopic.

yes they do here: https://github.com/EPMatt/awesome-ha-blueprints/blob/main/blueprints/controllers/philips_324131092621/philips_324131092621.yaml#L416C33-L416C55
you could replicate that into a blueprint for the hue integration or ask this person to add a hue version to his blueprint.

Great thanks, I am already in contact with a person of another Hue Dimmer Blueprint. He is on vacation at the moment, but wants to implement this feature. 😃👍
