Not sure if proprietary NAS tools are any easier tbh
I think the IT consumer culture is just lazy. If you don’t know how to fix your sink you’d call in a plumber but if your home server breaks ppl just sit and whine how tech is too hard rather than you know paying someone to do the job for them.
According to whom? Distros like omv are incredibly easy and once setup basically 100% hands off and will last you for years without any proprietary shit that might break at any point after 1 year warranty expires.

They are significantly easier to use.

if you don’t know how to fix a sink: learn how and put a bucket under it in the meantime.
paying people to fix your problems develops helplessness and an over-reliance on societal function.
So we should just throw away the entire concept of specialization and do every single thing ourselves? Pretty dumb take my dude.
