disregarding all instructions

Probably not the best practice…I’d look through the release notes between the versions you’ve upgraded through to be sure you didn’t miss any necessary changes to the docker compose or env files and upgrade as the documentation recommends.

Looks like v2.0.0 was just released as well.

I think they’re organized into individual user directories (in one location), so could probably set up a directory backup per user to their own device if so desired.

Yep, Reolink integrates really well with Home Assistant.

Working as intended.

DeArrow helps.
