I find it very a very romantic notion to have unknown areas on the world. Like some desert in the far south, beyond which might lie anything.
Very true, but I like my NAS to be maintenance-free, and Synology delivers on that. Their apps work out of the box and are installed with basically one click. I fiddle with tech enough at my job, I like my private tech to just work.
Even as a power-user you can do a lot, the synology nas also runs docker, so you can run whatever you’d like on it, not just the synology provided services.
Expanding the hardware is kind of a pain, even with RAM they are kind of weird and you need some approved (synology-brand) ram, or need to fiddle with some system files to make it accept any ram.
Also i’d love if they went with zfs instead of their llvm + btrfs.
A really cool do-it-all Option to de-google / de-cloud yourself is to buy a synology NAS. They come with all the cloud stuff you want, it works really well out of the box:
- Synology Drive for synced files, sharing files / folders with friends etc.
- Synology Office (Integrated into Drive)
- Synology Photos does the photo backup from your mobile devices
- Synology Calendar for calendar syncing etc
That way you’re not moving from one cloud provider to another one you might or might not trust, but you host it all yourself.
Miss me with more capeshit.
I don’t like that concept. Ban it for everyone, or keep it legal.
Stop with the umlauts, it hurts.
