I’m trying to find a good method of making periodic, incremental backups. I assume that the most minimal approach would be to have a Cronjob run rsync periodically, but I’m curious what other solutions may exist.

I’m interested in both command-line, and GUI solutions.

    Is it just me or the backup topic is recurring each few days on !linux@lemmy.ml and !selfhosted@lemmy.world?

    To be on topic as well - I use restic+autorestic combo. Pretty simple, I made repo with small script to generate config for different machines and that’s it. Storing between machines and b2.

      It hasn’t succeeded in nagging me to properly back up my data yet, so I think it needs to be discussed even more.
