Possible. My personal experience is that these apps increased my anxiety significantly until I got rid of them. I live in an incredibly safe city, and yet they were making me feel unsafe.

So I replaced my ring with a more privacy protecting and social media-free alternative, because video doorbells are very convenient still.

You mind recommending your solution? I'm running a cheap Wyze cam in my front window (with a view of the porch, and RTSP firmware to stream to MotionEye) But it's still Wyze, kinda sucks, and I'd rather have an actual fisheye camera and doorbell rather than a creepy camera peering out the window.

I’m using an Amcrest AD110 for my doorbell, and Reolink for external cameras. The Reolink cameras are PoE and behave nicely on my network. I’m also running a nicer network setup that lets me put these cameras on another vlan for security.

Currently I’m experimenting with Frigate as my NVR for object identification and clip tracking.
