My issue with this comment is my issue with the original article -- what's the actual source for this information?

As far as I can tell, this article has no actual link back to any Unifi press release, git repo, or other project page about this, the closest the author does is link the downloads from Ubiquiti's site (as in, literally, links to the files, and nothing else).

This is janky, yes, and I'm not gonna shill for Ubiquiti, but for lack of a legitimate source, I don't think this is a fair representation of the actual install steps.

The actual source is this: https://community.ui.com/releases/UniFi-OS-Server-4-2-23/21d... but only accessible if you opt-in to the Unifi Early Access program. We are talking beta software / first release here, so any criticism needs to be looked at through that lens.

Also there is the official announcement now: https://blog.ui.com/article/introducing-unifi-os-server

    My criticism was mainly of the original article for failing to link to a primary source beyond hotlinking some dmgs.

    I appreciate you linking these, though, as well as the extra context.
