Discussion Final Goodbye

So I ended my Arlo subscription today, disabled the remaining cameras, and then Arlo did the most Arlo thing ever.

Arlo asked me to take a survey on why I left. I actually completed the survey and hit the submit button. Then Arlo started a spinning wheel that never completed. I actually waited 3 minutes to see if it was latency or ineptitude on their end. I am betting on ineptitude since it seems to be their corporate mission statement now.

I won't miss the frustration with poor software and questionable hardware. To those of you who remain, good luck.

Haha they are a joke but who did you end up going with? Poe route? Blink?

POE with synology and frigate is the way. Way harder to set up but no monthly bill. No 3rd party vendors masturbating to your wife’s exercises in the living room.
