      Wish I had never got one. In my ignorance I thought I could stream it like any other camera, just needed to know the protocol. They make one like that?

        You’re looking for reolink stuff, just about the only ones that are still real ipcams and not IoT cloud spyware

        There are a few options on self-hosting doorbell cameras.

        Full self-hosting a Ring doorbell is a bit of a bother and you might as well go another route and have a POE security system with storage. You can’t easily divorce your Ring from the company’s control.
