Sounds like Canada should put a 50% tax on gasoline powered vehicles.

Can't you just not use their cloud services? It makes you create an account for setup, but once setup was done I never touched it.

I do not know what you mean by third-party integrations. I do not use any cloud stuff, Ubiquiti's or otherwise.

I used to use OpenWRT on various devices, but two years ago I got a UDM-Pro, a USW-16-POE, and a few Unifi APs and cameras. I run pi-hole on the UDM-Pro. I have no complaints. It is more expensive than piecing it all together using OpenWRT and some Raspberry PIs, but way easier.

You could use multiple USB microphones and do the mixing in software. I prefer using an audio interface (e.g. UMC204HD) because it is simpler to set up and adjust levels, and because it lets you use any widely available microphone, or plug in an instrument (e.g.: electric guitar, electric piano). You can plug your headphones into the audio interface and adjust the relative level of your own sound and what is coming from the computer (e.g.: your teacher). sweetwater.com has the UMC204HD and the UMC404HD on sale right now.

I do not have any experience with pick-up mics.

I tried Jitsi, but was unable to match Zoom's audio quality.

The difference between Jitsi and Zoom was noticeable, but less important than the difference between the mic built in to the webcam and good mics. I use an SM58 for voice and an SM137 pointed at the cello just below the bridge, through a UMC204HD.

Why is the Harris campaign not selling t-shirts that say "dangerous liberal"? Because I would buy five of them.

I read Kyr in Emily Tesh's "Some Desperate Glory" as autistic.

For comparison, Max Verstappen has finished outside of the top 10 only five times: four of them in his first season (with Toro Rosso) and one in his second season (in a Red Bull).

2.6% for Lewis 2.5% for Max
