This hasn't been asked in a while, and I really loved reading the last discussion so I'm hoping to kick it off again and see what has changed!

What I'd like to know is:

- What specific products do you wish you could host on your own infrastructure, but the product does not offer such a deployment method

- Do you or would you use the product without being able to self-host? I.E. In its current state

- Do you think your employer, if any, holds the same opinions?

Check out the Reolink doorbell, they have a wifi version and a poe version, though you need home assistant + frigate, and some tinkering skills to get it working. Might require a VPN for it to work wan you're not connected to home wifi. I haven't got it to work without VPN yet.
