Hello, my followers! Marius, your Internet friend here! Hope you are all well. It’s only a few days till Christmas and we’ve already reached over 3K members in the Discord Live Chat. I want to say thank you so much to all of you for your support. Right now it’s the largest Synology NAS community on Discord that is dedicated entirely to the NAS device and other Synology products. We had daily over 500 people online ready to help each other. To compare, on Reddit there were only 300 people online, while on our Discord group there were over 500; despite being overall fewer, we are very active. Our group is the closest-knit and we have the best Synology experts!
There are several sections in the Discord server dedicated to specific topics such as Docker, General support, Surveillance, Routers etc. and channels organized by language criteria to serve the needs of all the different users. These past two months more and more people have been coming in need of support and benefiting from the experience and help of a lively and engaged community. Zero subscriptions, free membership, continuous support from senior members, even at 5 a.m., on the account our members come from different time zones. In short, a true revolution that no online forum will ever be able to replicate. Also, this month we introduced a new channel for our Nederland friends and a new channel for Docker guide requests.
On the Synology Discord channel you can talk with fellow members who are an active part of the Synology community Server and exchange opinions or troubleshoot a problem via chat, audio or video. A lot of hard work goes into growing this Community that seeks to benefit everyone with an interest in Synology.
A special thanks to our Admins & Moderators on Discord (Lyxon, PTS, Flover, PalmTree, Pepper, Tone the bone, sw0rdfish, abeNdorg, guitar_pepito, Hedgeslammer, v3n3) who are helping members find solutions to their problems on a daily basis. Also, I would like to extend a special Thank You to the members in the “Contributors Role” who have contributed to the growth of the channel by helping other members integrate. Another new role is “Channel Friends“, our loyal channel friends who frequently intervene in conversations. And a warm welcome to our new moderator Pepper.
