I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, technology, and several other subjects.

  • I was looking into the same issue myself too. I’m currently using a managed Nextcloud instance but was hoping to self-host it.

    Backing up container volumes and configs seems like such a common problem, but surprisingly I haven’t found a dedicated solution. I’ve considered borg, but restic seems like the best option so far. It can use any rclone backend, stores the data encrypted, and has snapshot support with deduplication.

    Keep in mind that Backblaze does charge for downloading, modifying, uploading, and other file actions. If you don’t want to pay for traffic you could also use a Hetzner storage box (1 TiB ~€4/m) with its dedicated restic backend.
