    Duplicati > Backblaze B2

    I used Duplicati in the past and it chocked with large backups.

    Yes, they have improved large backup handling somewhat, but I would not recommend it for >500GB backups. But AFAIK it's the only free backup program out there with a GUI, and it is easy to set it up to use Cloudflare for free egress from Backblaze. My backup costs are down to $0.15 per month (30GB backed up).

  • My laptop and my phone syncs with a nextcloud server. That nextcloud server ftps to 3 backup destinations. My other servers send daily backups to the same 3 backup destinations.

    Eating my own dog food here. Any server with relevant data on it gets roughly those lines added to its Ansible playbook (using this role) and that's pretty much it.

        - role: borgbackup
          borg_repository: [email protected]:repo
          borg_source_directories:
            - /var/lib/blah
            - /var/lib/foo
          borgmatic_hooks:
            postgresql_databases:
              - name: all

    This makes me curiious actually.. do you back up the borgbase servers themselves anywhere? I wouldn't expect you to backup the backups but what about the core customer data? Where does that go to?

    Valid question. No, there are no further backups of BorgBase repos. The data just changes too often. This would need a different architecture.

    The core database is backed up to a few additional servers outside BorgBase. Borgmatic allows adding multiple target repos and will send the data to all of them. Works well for cases that need multiple backups.

    Yeah, I thought this was the case, hence why I said I didn't expect it hahah. Definitely not a priority at all.

    This is really interesting! Borgmatic really is a powerful tool.

    I called the number, the lovely young gentleman was very patient after I helped him get his bosses money back after he accidentally refunded me too much to my account and I paid him the difference. So lovely he was, in fact, that I never thought to verify if the money he sent me even was sent to begin with.

    Ha, it was a trick question. He tried to fool you by spelling it incorrectly, but you just outright can't read as words are spelled.

    The guy who discovered it named it "aluminum" so really, the rest of the world are being conformist cunts. The honour of naming a new element is supposed to go to the discoverer, so I'm going to say, "fuck you, it's aluminum".
