Reddit AMA - 5/9/2023
There have been several community developed projects for the wyze cams like WyzeHacks, wz_mini_hacks, and docker-wyze-bridge, however, it seems as though each project is slowly getting killed off with every new product and firmware release.

Why can't someone (WYZE ?) come up with a way to send cam recordings to a folder or share on the wifi network instead of to the sd card. that way if there was a breach of any kind where the camera got destroyed, you would have a recording of it elsewhere.
This firmware supports NFS mounts in favor of sd cards. It looks like it hasn't been updated recently, but it worked when I last tried it. https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks

Unreliable RTSP
Perhaps you're thinking of WyzeHacks or Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks? (the latter does not work with V3 hardware)
- Wyze Cam RTSP support removed

How many 'No Signal' is acceptable for a WiFi camera?
I'm running the wz_mini_hacks image (https://github.com/HclX/WyzeHacks) where you run from a SD card and it has a rtsp server. You have the ability to ssh into the camera (which is pretty cool) and it's running Linux so you can do some troubleshooting.

OpenIPC is an alternative open firmware for your IP camera
https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks is a particularly good example, the top of the README is a list of camera models and pictures of the camera. (It also mentions "Any other Device with Ingenic T10/T20" at the end of the list, so it might overlap with OpenIPC somewhat?)

How I changed my D-Link camera from cloud camera to a locally managed IP camera
For those who are anti-cloud or want a 2-tier system for any good reasons, Been using this with several wyzecam V2 cameras for 2 years with no issues other than the cameras not being low light sensitive like the V3, otherwise the setup is pretty solid and fast.

alternate Firmware
https://github.com/EliasKotlyar/Xiaomi-Dafang-Hacks works for me. It still crashes though, but with home assistant and mqtt control I can restart rtsp or reboot them. I use Frigate nvr for object detection and that provides mqtt stats, if the fps goes to zero that triggers a restart of rtsp if that fails to fix things then it is rebooted.
