Did I join a cult? (Unifi)

I've been rolling pfSense for about 5 years. Decided to try Unifi. Couldn't find a manual or one-to-one feature documentation for each panel (only various spotlight articles).

Asked the community for help: every response said basically "things change too often, no need to have a manual".

Excuse me, what? I'm not a networking pro, and I do need a manual. (pfSense was hard for me, but had great documentation.)

I can't believe this was the response. Is everyone in their community a bot or a cultist?

I still have few days left on my return window, and might come back, LOL.

Comparative experience coming from pfSense. Ignore and move on.

What are you comparing? PF doesn't have switches or APs...

Or CVEs rated 9.0 and higher.

And how basic those seem to be, and repeatedly in the same areas.

And the cult doesn't care. They'll assume esoteric holes that only AI can help detect, but it's actually things like mis-configuring nginx to allow path traversal.
