I see many posts asking about what other lemmings are hosting, but I’m curious about your backups.

I’m using duplicity myself, but I’m considering switching to borgbackup when 2.0 is stable. I’ve had some problems with duplicity. Mainly the initial sync took incredibly long and once a few directories got corrupted (could not get decrypted by gpg anymore).

I run a daily incremental backup and send the encrypted diffs to a cloud storage box. I also use SyncThing to share some files between my phone and other devices, so those get picked up by duplicity on those devices.

    I basically do the exact same thing. A few mins of down time at 5am isn’t gonna bother me.

    I’ve tested a few times nuking my containers and volumes and kicking off my ansible playbooks which redeploy and restore from s3 backups.

    Haven’t had to redeploy from scratch yet though
