So this is a completely different side of the house than my post before. At first I thought they were ants. Reddit seems to think they may be termites. Thoughts?

Yeah after closer inspection that have a pinched waist and bent antennae.
Are these any issue to my house or were they just having a giant orgy?

They swarm just like termites.
Treat them like other ants.

See if you have a state entomologist who can give you an ID on them. If they are carpenter ants you have a problem. I've had they occupy old termite-riddled wood. You can bait for them, but it takes a few months for effect. Cut back all tree limbs over and near the house.
