Hmmm…
Point 1 The work done on porting is beyond dispute.
Yep, and your work on your ports are nice as well.
- Point 2 I… However, claiming that USB webcam support is limited to a single model via IP streaming is, frankly, disappointing to hear from you.

You actually posted your webcam driver work a few months ago… you mentioned patches to get it fully working. So, is the point self-defeating - even with use of the AI or large model?!? Hmmm…
- Point 3 … “branding” or gatekeeping third-party software, …is something I simply cannot accept.
You don’t have to drink the Kool-Aid or eat red meat. Some people will not trust AI, self-drivng vehicles, or robot assistants. They’ll trust children toys from a sweat shop much faster than trust AI. Provide your own solutions to solve your own problems (or for those users welcoming your help). Don’t burn fire in a paper house. Children are still sleeping.
Well, Points 4-7 are answered with the answer to Point 3. You cannot please those people whom do not want the pleasure. So, you can be wiser than the ego and let this go away or fight the Kingdom of Rome till you are blue in the face - or whatever.
