I dunno. I'd be starting all over again and looking for different options depending on the application. One of the nice things about Ubiquiti was that they did several things well. For plug-and-play home wifi, Eero might be a good choice, with some reservations. For slightly larger scale prosumer stuff, I might look for a way to use Ubiquiti's hardware but with something like https://hostifi.com/ https://hostifi.com/ , maybe with older-generation hardware that I still trusted. For the DIY hobbyist, pfsense, openwrt, and kin are still popular. Honestly, mesh networks have been a tarpit forever. It's been exceedingly difficult to make them reliable, with all the features people want (like access point roaming), without spending a lot of time or money. I got out of that niche a few years back and have no desire to get back in to it.

For prosumer stuff -- why would you not just self-host?!? The average prosumer is never going to need more than the cheapest DO droplet to host. Or else just run it on a computer that isn't on all the time -- prosumers either already have a server on all the time or don't care if they have logs going back 5 years. This seems to cost $60/mo at the least. Also, I do not have much faith in this company with their website being so slow (maybe too many HN people are hitting idk, never heard of them).
