Hello,
I am a new Solus user since two days.
I come from Debian, Linux Mint, Kubuntu, Kde Neon, Zorin and have always used KDE, now with Plasma 6 which is great.
I solved my connection with the Nas Synology and mounted my DDs.
Everything works fine. I'm pleasantly surprised by this OS.

I still have to set up the Synology Drive client. I've done some research, but I'm not back yet.
Does anyone know how to install Synology Drive client?

Thanks for your answers.

I think it was available as Flatpak. We have Synology Cloud Station Drive in Third Party repo, but it has not been updated since 2020. Also, Third Party repo is going away and I do not recommend to use any of software available there, especially if it is available as flatpak

    Yes, it's available as a Flatpak as @alfisya said. I've used the Flatpak version on Solus before without any issues. It pretty much works the same as it does on Windows and Synology did a great job on the setup wizard when you first run it.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your answers.
    I saw it was a Flatpak, but I don't know how to install Flatpaks.
    With eopkg? If yes, what is the command?
    Thanks for your help.

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://dl.flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub com.synology.SynologyDrive

        Thanks, works perfectly.

        Generally speaking, do you use the same procedure to install any Flatpak?

        The first command is only needed once to add flathub as a Repo.
        The second command is then what you need to install.

        I usually use flathub.org to search for software (you can also do it in command line or gui). When you click here you will see the install command:

        Thank you. It's very clear.
        I was able to install what was not in the repositories.

        I've been asking myself this question for a while, in your opinion, is Flatpaks a secure, efficient and safe solution to be used with Linux systems?
        I've already read several articles on this subject without really having a definite answer.

          alfisya We have Synology Cloud Station Drive in Third Party repo, but it has not been updated since 2020.

          It "has not been updated" because that's the latest (and last) update for that particular piece of software, and it was decided against including any other (if similar) tool into the deprecated Third Party repository (like Synology Drive). Last time I asked people someone was still using the old tool because it worked for their use case so I refrained from completely removing it back then.

            Just my personal opinion: I have some concerns with unverified apps and I hope more vendors will join flathub and distribute their apps directly instead of the community providing a lot of apps there. But that's not a problem of Flatpak itself. Flatpak itself is fine IMHO.

              @kaktuspalme I've seen too many flatpaks show as being unverified when in fact it's from a legit source. Even Synology's ones show unverified yet they they're the only ones that published them. The verification flag is misleading in this sense as many don't go through the process or do whatever is needed to be shown as verified.
