I am using duplicati and thinking of switching to Borg. What do you use and why?

    • Btrfs for local system backups based on snapshots
    • Photoprism for photos
    • Syncthing for other media

      You will reconsider calling strategy a backup should the filesystem get corrupted for whatever reason.

      I’ve tested my full system backup restore once with btrfs. Worked out fine.

        Maybe Photoprism isn’t a backup strategy, but Syncthing for sure is, because you can have multiple backup units in it.

        I’m additionally use software RAID on one of devices, that receives Syncthing backups.
