You can’t dedup/compress restic repos at fs level due to the encryption.

I like it, cheaper than Netflix used to be, and I use it for more hours / month. Rn I’m using it to play starfield.
I use wasabi s3, I back up to that using restic.
With restic you can pipe to stdin, so I use mysqldump and pipe it to restic:
mysqldump --defaults-file=/root/backup_scripts/.my.cnf --databases db-name | restic backup --stdin --stdin-filename db-name.sql
The .my.cnf looks like this:
[mysqldump] user=db-user password="databasepassword"
