There's something to that claim. Sending uncompressed (i.e. not transcoded) video content over the internet can easily saturate your internet link.
Do you have CIFS/Samba, in other words Windows Network Explorer access to the files on the NAS via your local network? If so try directly opening a video and look at the network dashboard of the NAS and/or your computers task manager (performance - ethernet tab) to see to what mbit bandwidth the not transcoded stream amounts too.
Consider that the exact same mbit bandwidth will be needed using Synology QuickConnect to view media from outside of your local network.
If you want to work around all that you would probably have to look into something that buffers/transcodes your media, something like Jellyfin/Plex or the likes. For that you'd have to look into running Docker on the NAS but that'll plunge you into self-hosting very deep very fast and may be beyond your initial comfort zone.
500 fibre connection means it is a 500mbit internet uplink?
Have you checked whether the ethernet cable you're connecing the DS216j to your router is a "Cat5e" cable. If it is a "Cat5" you would be limiting and thus bottlenecking your bandwidth to 100mbit max.
Deep Rock Galactic - I should have probably picked it up earlier. It's such a wonderful co-op game with so many memorable, epic moments happening.
Very charming atmosphere, too.
It's pretty solid for 1:1 calls, and they are currently working on Matrix's own conferencing protocol/solution.
But until then you could set up a Jitsi Meet instance along with Matrix to run multiple user calls.
I'm trying to stay away and I do feel like there is a reasonable chance I might be able to.
I recently subscribed to a Lemmy "self-hosted" and "asklemmy" group and content is starting to trickle in real good.
Mostly I feel it's a matter of consolidating Lemmy groups with the same topics into super-groups. This should help with general useability as well as making things more friendly for people moving over from Reddit.
Federation support for other Fediverse products towards Lemmy also will need some work still.
