Didn't Synology just walk back the whole "first party drives only" thing?

Yes. Synology introduced the requirement to use first-party drives earlier this year and it was such an unmitigated disaster for them that they rolled it back just a couple of days ago.

Once trust is lost, it is lost for good.
Never buying Synology, they will do it again in various ways, same or otherwise.
