I am quite turned off after a short honeymoon with unifi. They push setup via their mobile apps to the point that connecting to a dreammachine and entering its ip adress just shows a download link to the app store. The app could not connect without any hint of reason so i just consider this bricket now. Even before there were many red flags such as login flows to a local device going via .com domains. Completely confusing architecture where it is not obvious to me what parts of the admin setup run on unifis servers vs on the device. Why do all companies selling great looking devices poison everything with their cloud crap.
