I would never use their firewalls/gateways, but their switches are pretty good for the price and their APs are decent (although tbh after 3 generations my next AP will likely be an enterprise Aruba).
That said, I still use Unifi in docker, everything is up to date, and nothing is requiring a sign-in to the cloud. Am I missing something? If it's just the firewalls, then I'm not surprised since I've never been remotely tempted to use them, but it sure isn't all of their devices.
What router do you have? If it's a dream router, how did you join it to your unifi running in docker on another host?
My firewall is a Fortigate 60F.
Ubiquiti website says that dream router must run unifi.

I believe you. I'm just saying their non-firewalls (i.e., switches and APs) don't have that limitation.
Oh yeah, exactly. USG and aps and stuff do not. The dream router does, so I would caution against it.
Also, they may force it in the future. Their past behavior does indicate that direction.
