Sorry I know this has probably been asked a million times.

I'm looking at a few options for my home network and I am really stuck as to what direction to go.

Ubiquiti - Privacy and being a closed ecosystem and being at Ubiquiti's mercy the is putting me off the Ubiquiti route, I also worry Ubiquiti will make anti consumer choices such as subscription services. But then the ease of setup with CCTV/Doorbell/Aps etc then brings me back to the Dream machine or even the gateway fibre.

Opnsense - Being open source is a massive pro for obvious reasons but then setting up the APs, CCTV/Doorbell/home assistant becomes a bit more difficult and I feel it will take alot more maintenance?

I am already running an Unraid server using Tailscale form remote access.

My plans are either

Dream Machine SE

Unifi 24POE switch

Unifi APs

Unifi CCTV

Unifi Doorbell

Or

Opnsense on Lenovo Tiny M720Q

Unifi 24 POE switch or another alternative

Unifi APs

Frigate CCTV

Reolink doorbell

Home assistant

Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
