I recently implemented a backup workflow for me. I heavily use restic for desktop backup and for a full system backup of my local server. It works amazingly good. I always have a versioned backup without a lot of redundant data. It is fast, encrypted and compressed.
But I wondered, how do you guys do your backups? What software do you use? How often do you do them and what workflow do you use for it?
I use Pika Backup (GUI that uses Borg Backup on the backend) to back up my desktop to my home server daily, then overnight that server has a daily backup using Borg to a Hetzner Storage Box. It’s easy to set it and forget it (other than maybe verifying the backups every once in a while), and having that off site back up gives me peace of mind.
