Is OpenWRT or OPNSense the way to go? Or is there some more generic web dashboard you can run on any GNU/Linux or BSD system?

Market cap is monopoly money, it doesn't mean anything.
Alas not true. The higher your market cap, the more money you can raise by printing more stocks.

I would like to hear more about your experience.
I’ve finally worked out that people who want something from me, like my company or my software or my expertise, will say whatever they have to say to get a deal - but once the deal is done they just do whatever the hell they want, regardless of what they said. It’s the opposite of what I expect. I can’t deal with it. The people who do this are smart, confident and charismatic. It is clearly a negotiating strategy. Bu…
So what's a good alternative to Ubiquiti hardware? Is there some guides/community for standard x86_64/arm64 computers and PCIe cards to be used as professional-grade routers and wifi access point at a low price range? Turris Omnia looks pretty cool but it's really too expensive for non-profits. Is OpenWRT or OPNSense the way to go?

I am a satisfied user of their software (and hardware) for the past 10years.
If you don't mind the rather rustic interface, it should be as closest to a professional grade cisco as you can get.
He could've prevent all of this by a) making sure his traffic was blackholed when the VPN went down and b) adding another layer from a free service (like TOR or a proxy or another VPN). He also should've been actively using the VPN so his traffic patterns wouldn't stand out as much, and so his purchase would be justifiable. If he really did buy the VPN 6 months ahead then he was a fool to leave the subscription dorma…
I really dislike theses kinds of comments in theses kind of posts. This is just bragging. I would like the bad people to be caught and you are just giving away free advice to any future thief like him and also kind of encouraging other people which is kind of worrisome. Privacy is a double edge sword and this is case that I happy that he was caught because of his lack of knowledge.
He was probably just overconfident in his knowledge; you kind of have to be somewhat nuts to try to pull this off so it's not too surprising.

I’m shocked it hasn’t bounced back yet!
Some times these events (not security specifically) simply mask a market correction or trigger it. I have been in infosec a long time now and historically security incidents have rarely moved a stock price. Maybe temporarily, but it tends to bounce back after a year. Look at the massive Home Depot breaches from a while back for example. Perhaps consumers are less forgiving if it happens to a tech company.

How about mikrotik, https://mikrotik.com/ I am a satisfied user of their software (and hardware) for the past 10years. If you don't mind the rather rustic interface, it should be as closest to a professional grade cisco as you can get.
I'd personally be interested in a hardware vendor supporting a free-software stack (but with an accessible price range), or an established software vendor (ideally a workers coop) maintaining an administration dashboard to setup on commodity hardware.

I used to like Ubiquiti a lot, but nowadays i prefer to use other brands which are even easier to implement and manage. For the clients that still want to use Ubiquiti i try and implement a Debian 11 VM with the Ubiquiti software on it.
Which are those other brands and models, please? I am looking to upgrade my home setup to 10GbE LAN and apart from 2-3 switch models from Mikrotik I really can't see anything worthwhile (I don't want Cisco or TP-Link, they don't take security seriously).
Regarding support wise: I've had one malfunctioning switch (POE just stopped working) and it was replaced within 24 hours, so that's nice.

Is this why Ubiquiti quality has fallen over the last ~2 years? I went all-in on Ubiquiti almost 3 years ago and I’ve been less than thrilled with the quality and level of support. This chaos that you say happened seems to line up with what I was seeing as a customer but everyone has been shocked at how UI has dropped in terms of quality.
I mean this genuinely: I'm amazed there was a point at which people were ever thrilled enough with the quality and level of support from Ubiquiti that they are now shocked. Other than the working hours first level chat support I can't think of anything they had in support that remotely resembled having quality support. Shit, 3 years ago I was happy if there was someone on the forums that found a version of firmware t…

> When faced correcting a false reality you have created, it can be quite hard to decide to phase change into telling the truth. The lies that come out come from not being prepared and not being a very good liar. For people who lie like this, a good way to think about it is as though it were a disease. Or just don’t talk to the police and lawyer up. I agree the best thing is to not do the crime, but if you are a crim…
Even if you're not guilty the intelligent and simple thing is to politely decline to speak to the investigators and consult an attorney.
