Use https://www.walletofsatoshi.com/
It's a custodial wallet so don't leave your funds on there for long but they do the entire back end for you.
You can send lightning to it and then send the funds to any segwit address you want.

Yes, in theory they could implode as you are moving your funds but they have been around for a while and are active in development being a wallet. Not something I would loose sleep over unless you are talking about a whole lot of money. And they you just chunk it out into smaller amounts.

I don't think a synology NAS is going to have nearly enough RAM or CPU power to run umbel. And then you have to open channels and to other work too.

Thank you.
I tried walletofsatoshi just now, seems they're charging addition tx fee to segwit address,
"+ fixed fee 15,000 sats (about $2)"

I will often make TX, so it's will cost a lot.

For Umbrel , I've setup on my synology 918+, on virtural machine of ubuntu.
It's works, but I am still downloading bitcoin block data, it's slow, I will try to copy my bitcoin core data on macos to Umbrel.

Yes, if you are doing it on a regular basis the WoS fees will add up, I read your OP as 'I want to do this' I didn't ask if it was that or 'I am going to be doing this a lot'
With that being said except for doing it yourself, you are going to have some fees. And doing it yourself will still need the funds to keep those channels open, and the costs to open and close them.

Another question is how often do you really need to swap funds? Can you just 'batch them out' so to speak. Or do you need to convert them as they come in?
