I found Thingino to be very buggy and frustrating to use despite using 2 different supported cameras. The stream would constantly drop out, services would sometimes crash and wouldn't get automatically restarted. I tried tweaking all available parameters, resetting, updating but eventually I just gave up (a few months ago).

e.g. https://github.com/themactep/thingino-firmware/issues/640

I bought the cheapest PTZ camera they have listed and, as you say the install was easy. The interface is useful and it does what it says on the tin.

I also use thingino and it was very easy to use. It has wireguard support, but I just set up my firewall so cams are only accessible over tailscale.
