Cool. Thanks Synology. I’ve still decided I’ll never fucking buy one.
This is a market where customers buy religiously based on trust.
How do you decide to fuck that up like this?
Synology is in an interesting position.
They make a product mostly aimed toward nerds, very few non-nerd people will see the point of a local NAS and have the patience to set one up.
Nerds are funny in that they hate being told that you are not allowed to do things with your own hardware.
Synology messed up bad here

Also to mention QNAP with TrueNAS installed UGreen with HexOS
“shitty company learning how to get as close to the line of fucking their customers over for more profit, likely to do it again after this settles down”
Its poor form to say that people purchased alternatives, but not lost those alternatives (apart from the ransomwared qnap).
I built mine on OpenMediaVault, a quick search shows that Asustor and Terramaster are popular options. What other brands should people consider?
I’ve been running TrueNAS since it was called FreeNAS and I’ve been happy with it.
Good. They don’t deserve customers ever again.
lol.
Womp womp.
