It integrates seamlessly into home assistant. ... Shinobi CCTV is free (for personal use), open-source and can run pretty much any camera that supports RTSP/ONVIF. Also doesn't require freaking Windows.
r/smarthome
App works fine, if a tad bit slow at times. Though it's not much different than my Ring cameras (cloud only). ... Definitely Reolink. No monthly cost and integrates really well with Home Assistant.
