Hey, sorry to hijack the thread, but I just got myself a Synology NAS and have been taking some time to learn more about it before moving real data onto it. Are you using those Synology apps (like Synology Photos) for all this? Which provider (if any) are you using for offsite backups?
I've grown wary of any cloud service that requires a custom login, even if they offer awesome features now, because of the potential they will get enshittified in the future. But I assume that Synology has already made their money off of me when I bought the box....
I'm using the apps: both Drive and Photos, at least. Works very well for me. For backup, I do a physical backup daily to an attached external hard drive, and weekly to a remote cloud option
