I'm in the same boat as you with the Arlo cameras. I've got the Pro (4030) cameras. I read an article that said they kinda walked that decision back. They are going to continue the 7 day free cloud storage, so after the EOL date, which was July 1st, they'll continue to offer security updates for a year, but after that our cameras will still work but not receive updates. I'll definitely be looking for other options, but at least they'll still work. If anyone knows a good kit that lets you host the videos yourself I'd be interested in hearing about it.
Security updates should be mandatory. Something like safety recalls on a vehicle.
I just purchased my first Lorex camera. Won't likely have time to tinker with it for another week or so, but can let you know if it seems good. Hoping to switch to their entire local infrastructure.
