My entire house uses them exclusively and they’re rock solid (as long as you have latest firmware, adopting old stock can be .... interesting).

Also no need for the cloud controller as you can run t inside a docker and have a fully self hosted solution.

If you don't want to pay $80 for the cloud key and don't want to run the controller on one of your machines, the unifi service can also be set up on a raspberry pi pretty easily.
Is the performance ok? I'd imagine it would be slow as heck
The Unifi controller is a configuration front end for Unifi devices -- data on the network shouldn't be going through it. It might be a little slower to use, though I've never compared it with the cloud key, but for a home setup, that won't matter too much.
