Doorbell Camera / NVR (post Unifi) (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

Hi all, my Unifi Doorbell just died after only 4 years of service. I've been pretty disheartened with them lately, other products haven't lived up to the company's promise.

So I'm not looking to replace my networking stack yet, but I am looking for a doorbell camera. I only have the Unifi machine, but I also have an extensive docker/kubernetes stack, and mostly I want to use it with Home Assistant.

Any recommendations? Open to software, hardware, you name it. I have a few other Unifi cameras too, if they could be brought into the fold while I slowly migrate, I'd be interested. Thanks!

I’m not sure if it’s the electrician’s ineptitude (especially these cookie cutter homes, around me I have ryan and toll brothers, one time I was installing one and the wires FELL out of the door frame) or Mother Nature getting to the electronics outside or maybe a bit of both. Don’t do indoor cameras so can’t speak to that aspect.
