What's your backup strategy for your Linux machines?

Curious how everyone here handles backups. Whether it’s a single laptop, a homelab, or a few servers.

A few questions:

  • What do you use? rsync, Borg, Restic, Timeshift, Déjà Dup, something else?
  • Where do backups go? External drive, NAS, cloud, offsite?
  • How often do they run, and have you ever actually tested a restore?

Share your setup, even if it’s simple. A one-line cron job or bash scripts acceptable!
