Content in File Station differs from content in mounted folder locally

I mounted my shared folder on my Synology DS220+ on my mac using AFP, and it worked fine - however I noticed after browsing around, that suddenly some files just disappeared from my folder.

Worried - I logged in with File Station and found all my files there. Then I tried using SMB instead, and connected it - still no files in the folder and I found an additional folder in my mount (with some random name starting with a ~) that I could not find in File Station. Strange!

I've noticed that folder names with umlauts (ü, ä, ö) etc behave like this. I can see the content at first, but as soon as I interact with any file - all files disappear.

I was thinking it would work with AFP, but as I understand it's been deprecated by Apple and now it's SMB that is the safe bet.

Is there anything I can do? Renaming the files it not an option as folder names are generated by GPS-location and will contain other letters.

I have used AFP for as long as I remember and still do with no problems at all.

Can you send a screenshot of this "disappearing" problem of yours?

Before interacting with the files (I can't open them, I press space to see info about them)

After interacting... all gone.

These screenshots are from the video I made above.
