#borg #backup #sysadmin

I'm using both #restic and #borg now because restic apparently doesn't have a problem with a slow mounted samba share as target. So far I much prefer borg, as it gives you more info more quickly. And apparently restic doesn't do 'checkpoints' during a backup, so if the initial backup of a massive drive is canceled for some reason, you basically have to start all over. borg has --checkpoint-interval.

@ChaosKitsune

I think #Borg and #Kopia would satisfy your needs.

I just found out that @borgbackup #Borg #BorgBackup is vibe coded now. That's a tragedy. Really upsetting, to be honest.

I've been safeguarding priceless data with Borg for years, but I obviously can't entrust something so important to code that wasn't written by skilled hands and reviewed by skilled minds.

What full-system #backup software for #Linux do people recommend instead?

#borg or #restic as #backup on #nixos ? And why?

#homelab #sysadmin

for #selfhosting, it will be enough,i'm confident that my service can endure a powercut, so snapshot will be fine.

i haven't figured out how i will manage off-site backup, maybe export a tar from borg ? or rsync the repo even if it's not advised.
