    Having a Ring doorbell is a game changer. If you’ve never used one I understand the reticence.

    I do think it will be standard thing in the future. It’s a basic quality of life improvement having a record of door interactions, being able to answer when you are away, even answering without going to the door. It’s easy to understand and appealing to most people.

        Also true. I use it in a business setting and it sort of doubles as a security camera. I would love to have the same functionality at home but it would have to be self hosted. Super creepy for a company to be watching my house

      I’ve had one for a decade or so. It’s fine. Life was fine before it too. Let’s all stay grounded people.
