Where would be a good place to ask for advice about setting these things up? It's not something I want to start looking in to quite yet but once I move in a few months I'd really like to set something up and I know I'm going to need some advice..
Comment on Wyze security camera owners reported that they could briefly see feeds from cameras they didn’t own

Heard Ubiquiti was good.

Any community based on self-hosting. Smart Home YouTube channels. If you want to know how to setup multiple cameras and access points with UniFi gear, check out MactelecomNetworks on YouTube. The algorithm should push you in the direction of anyone else of note too.

Thanks for the tips!
Though I'm generally looking for something more like a community/magazine on here where I could ask questions and get personal advice, rather than try to follow someone else do something that isn't exactly what I'm trying to do..

Im happy with my ubiquiti cameras. They are pricy but solid.

Yeah that’s the problem(same with automation. ) You have your own infrastructure- $$ but secure - or you have the backen offsourced to a remote server for a cheaper device and get data raped.
