Esp32Cam with esphome running a webserver, add frigate in the mix and you can have dozens of cameras for just a few bucks.
Completely open source (apart from the espressif wifi radio stack, but who's counting) and low cost.
Yes, quality of the camera will never compete with commercial stuff, but this is way more fun. Add as much cameras as your frigate instance allows..
