Ditched Arlo Today and it Feels SOOOO Good

I bought into Arlo a long time ago. They had free 30 day storage. As you are probably aware they end of life perfectly fine cameras that were grandfathered in to free storage. I had a hub and setup a VPN so I could view recordings locally and sure enough that "broke" too and they just don't care to fix it. They basically fucked all their current customer base. I had the XL Pro bundle from Costco, 5 older HD Cams, a doorbell camera and their baby camera. They all stopped recording one after another with no fixes available. They are now only good for live streaming without a subscription.

Today I setup the Aqara G4 Doorbell and a few of their E1 cameras. HKSV integration seems really smooth. Local storage seems to work. Ordered more of their E1 cameras and took down all of my Arlo cameras.

Fuck Arlo.
