I currently have a ring doorbell that I pay a yearly fee for but I want to get away from Amazon and a subscription fee. I would prefer if it used the Wi-Fi and it was able to connect with my house doorbell. Edit: I'd also like to add that I would like it to have the ability to stream and record video.

I have an amcrest one and it works great with frigate over RTSP. I also blocked it's internet access and firewalled it on my local network so it can't phone home.
