  "textContent": "Onscreen5341:\n\n> Does this not apply to MikroTik too? Their switches are proprietary too, right?\n\nYou are right, Microtik sofware is proprietary too. I don’t see one as good and one as bad. I actually set up the cloud-based version of unifi for my cousin. It was the full setup with router and everything. There was a lot of automation which was good but a lot of abstraction which would have been fine but since things like adblocking are mostly abstracted, it is just a simple yes/no selection, which I found annoying. If you’re used to adguard home, pihole, pfblockerng, etc., then the binary-ness of that is a tough pill to swallow.\nI assume that’s just for the router and not switches or ap’s but i wouldn’t know what they’ve abstracted unless i learned about it first somewhere else (like with microtik?).\nBut sometimes I overthink this stuff lol.",
