I’ve written a bot for !dailygames@lemmy.zip that I’m currently just running on my desktop. But I’d like to be able to set and forget it (except for when I do updates) by running it on my Synology NAS.

How can I best pull the node app from GitHub and run it on my Synology, preferably automatically running on start-up if the Synology is restarted.

    There is not. But I’d say keep SSH closed on the NAS or whitelist only your local IP in the firewall. I do that and turn it off when I don’t need it. It can be a bit risqué messing about with SSH on Synology because of how funky they’ve made the distro it’s running and any changes you make might not persist on reboot or after updates.
