I see many posts asking about what other lemmings are hosting, but I’m curious about your backups.

I’m using duplicity myself, but I’m considering switching to borgbackup when 2.0 is stable. I’ve had some problems with duplicity. Mainly the initial sync took incredibly long and once a few directories got corrupted (could not get decrypted by gpg anymore).

I run a daily incremental backup and send the encrypted diffs to a cloud storage box. I also use SyncThing to share some files between my phone and other devices, so those get picked up by duplicity on those devices.

    In the process of moving stuff over to Backblaze. Home PCs, few clients PCs, client websites all pointing at it now, happy with the service and price. Two unraid instances push the most important data to an azure storage a/c - but imagine i’ll move that to BB soon as well.
    Docker backups are similar to post above, tarball the whole thing weekly as a get out of jail card - this is not ideal but works for now until i can give it some more attention.

    *i have no link to BB other than being a customer who wanted to reduce reliance on scripts and move stuff out of azure for cost reasons.

      Would I be correct to assume you are using Backblaze PC backup rather than B2?

    I run a restic backup to a local backup server that syncs most of the data (except the movie collection because it’s too big). I also keep compressed config/db backups on the live server.

    I eventually want to add a cloud platform to the mix, but for now this setup works fine
