I’m not sure what you mean by “open source compatible”. Do you mean the camera itself can have open source firmware installed, or that it’s compatible with open source NVR software such as Shinobi or ZoneMinder?

If the former, I know some of the Wyze cameras have that option. Like OpenMiko. There’s all OpenIPC, which does have a list of supported devices.

If the latter, any camera with RTSP and some sort of API to expose PTZ controls would do. My personal recommendation would be Axis, which makes solid cameras.

What we can work on is awareness. If iOS users are aware, they can choose to simply go to the website directly and make the purchase, instead of using the app. They can still use the app for consumption.

Man, they just keep burying their head further. I still have Windows 10 on my gaming PC, and that’s more because I plan on replacing it and will use that moment to transition to Linux, but up until a few months ago I could have been convinced to keep using Windows.

That was until they popped up a full screen ad in the middle of gaming, telling me my PC doesn’t work with 11 but they have great financing options forn a 11 capable PC. Followed by my lock screen having ads of a similar nature. Fucking gross.

I use Groupy by Stardock for this. It’s a neat little tool that lets you make pretty much any application into a tab by grouping them.

It isn’t open source nor free though, and I didn’t even realize there was a Groupy 2 until I searched it to get you a link. For something I use daily, it was worth it for $10.

The law is for devices that come out of the box with a weak default. Like buying a wifi hotspot where the default is “admin123” would be bad. The default being random and printed on a label in the device is probably what this is aiming to usher in.
