Should a toggle button show its current state or the state to which it will change?

Weird, but I found it a super interesting read. It made me think of Home Assistant as one of the only software that I could think of that uses a toggle button from the top of my head. I think it handles these states wonderfully.
Edit: The big one I rarely see. But, either one seems quite intuitive.
That’s fair, I use toggles somewhat regularly in web dev and semantic ui has nice styling for them. Not as fancy as home assistant though, those are very clear!
Right?!? I find their design to be some of the best I've seen. Even against proprietary software.
