This made my day. Put a big grin in it.

Restic seems nice but I don’t have any experience with it so don’t have much to say. Someone else with some experience with Restic might come along though and contribute. :)

In addition to the recommendations you’re getting already, I recommend learning about Borg Backup. It has great documentation.

Borgmatic is a project that makes automatic backups easier with Borg.

If you want a GUI for your personal machines there is Vorta.

I’ve used Borg for years now and test my restores every year. Which reminds me… I should do that more often. 😅

Not yet. 🙂

Glad I could help. 🙂

Borgmatic is an automation tool for Borg. It has hooks for database backups.
