I just got my home server up and running and was wondering what you guys recommend for backups. I figure it will probably be worth having backups on cloud servers tjay are external, are there any good services yall use for that?

Restic or Kopia, both to Backblaze.

I've always found them pretty similar. How'd you chose one or another?

[–] Jajcus@kbin.social 3 points 3 years ago (1 children)

I know Restic before Kopia and made a set of systemd units to run Restic backups on my home server and office workstation (both online 24/7).

Kopia seems much nicer for a regular user, so I use it on my and family laptops. I used to use Duplicati there, but that project seems dead.
