At this point I really don't understand why anyone would put a camera in their home that's connected to a server they don't control.
Because zoneminder sucks and the other ones are kind of corporate and crappy?
Zoneminder is damn good for the price. Mine has never had a data breach either. So there's your downvote.
When it fucks up, good luck fixing it without an os reinstall. That's the price. If it was easier/possible to restore to a fully working state after it gets borked, it would be really good.
It's really easy for me to fix it if it breaks, since I have full disk images of the microSD card it runs on in my RPi 4. You could do the same with any linux system for most types of disks with cloning tools.
