I love Home Assistant and have been using it for years. It just keeps getting better and better over time! With so many new features added all the time I have just started blowing away my entire VM of it and recreating from scratch to see what's new. It's a good problem to have!
Blue Iris in the other hand... just give me a damn version that runs on Linux natively and not some Wine bullshit.
It can even run in Docker (which is how I'm running it). Not as intuitive as BlueIris but the dev is super-active and responsive to new features and bug fixes. Been running it for a couple of years now and like it.
Development has been going crazy for the last year or so. I don't regret a single cent I've paid for the nabu casa cloud subscription (not many subs I can say that about). I do, however, regret that I only have so much money to spend on new things to attach TO home assistant and start automating.
Custom responses is something I've been waiting for with bated breath. I used TTS over media player but that messed up whatever the media player was doing so I dropped it.

Frigate seems fairly popular among Home Assistant users for security cameras.
I think ZoneMinder is still going too which used to be the go to Linux option for that.
Having used both these and Shinobi cctv. Frigate is by far the best. I can't recommend it enough.
Frigate just released v13!! I can't wait to try it out this weekend

Thank you for the recommendation. I'll give this one a shot. I think I tried it a few years back so it is time to try it again.
Frigate might fit your needs.

Me: Hovering mouse over the update button Click it!!
Also me: No no, it says right in the changelog that this is one of biggest releases ever, wait for a point release
Me again: but you can make the "sleep time" automation say Goodnight after it runs!!!!!!

Data export from history to a CSV file! I love that there are always features I didn’t even know I wanted until someone else thought of them ;-)
