I find that I need a security camera for my back yard. Do you folks recommend any particular makes & models? It should avoid the cloud but record locally. I’m somewhat handy with Linux and a RaspberryPi, if that helps.

Thanks!

    I totally agree with you. I asked on Telegram why Majestic was closed source and I was insulted in Russian. To date I still don’t know why they do that.

    I am still using OpenIPC. I don’t see any outgoing connection (but I’ve also disabled internet access to it via firewall just to be sure)

      Thats awful… but im not surprised. I witnessed similar when i used to contribute.

      In any case i hate that theyre like this because there is a need for truly open camera firmware but their attitude makes me not even want to mention or recommend them. Especially not as a fully or truly FOSS solution

      Thingino devs are bros and do it purely for the foss privacy philosophy. Contributions are encouraged and praised and the support is soo friendly and encouraging
