  Things like this are why I keep throwing sidelong glances at Synology instead of QNAP I currently use. Sure, the QNAP is only behind my LAN, and it's job is exclusively to manage hard drives and give a warning when one gives out (or is about to) - and it does that well.

  But being able to have it closer to the WAN (even if just to share photos to others without Google Photos or similar), and the attention to security that enables that, is something I keep half-wishing I'd gone with Synology for.

  Maybe Immitch (or similar for sharing photos with friends) will improve to the point I can use that on my Debian server instead, and treat the QNAP as bulk storage and nothing more. And if there are suggestions for something better (for photo sharing outside the LAN), I'm all ears!
