What instead of G5 Pro?

Hi, so I guess not only I am disappointed where Aqara is heading with their subscription and castrating camera basic functions. I was planning of buying bunch of G5s despite quite high price, but now for sure I won’t. Don’t get me wrong I understand subscriptions and costs of providing some solutions, and paying for cloud storage is understandable.

So I am wondering what are you gonna use instead? Any suggestions for outdoor camera with 24/7 recording?
