I'm selfhosting a cctv system, Frigate.
Two ip cameras and an old laptop.
I was able to check on my cats while I was on vacations. Really cool.
The only problem is that I couldn't find free/open ip cameras. I got two proprietary cameras that work with proprietary (and poorly written) android app. Had to use and old phone to set up the cameras, the rstp:// urls and static ip addresses. I hated every minute I spent on that app.
But frigate was really easy to install and configure. Sadly, it's linux-centric, like most of modern foss.
