minus-squarestoy@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up29·2 days agoSynology 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
