Honestly running anything that isn't Synology made on their devices is a pain. Also, without knowing how old the device is, it's also a challenge to make a recommendation. As the other user replied Jellyfin is a good one, can run music, movies and tv, and home media too.
Stash is also a good one for grandpa
I disagree. Docker containers are pretty easy to set up on it, though I admit that the small memory sucks in terms of performance.
So you could say it’s a pain… lol, what I just said
Sorry, I thought you were saying it was a pain to setup and run anything else, I disagreed with that. It is performance limited because it is a NAS after all, but still completely functional. I've never installed anything on one that it couldn't handle, but perhaps someone else has. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
