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.

Main NAS backups to Secondary NAS (onsite - 10G link). Secondary NAS backups up to Offsite (Hetzner server) weekly. Only important data, not Linux ISOs etc.

Do you encrypt your Backups on the Hetzner server?

[-] dyslexicjedi@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago

Yup, both NASs are running TrueNas Scale, which have a setting for Encryption on Cloud Sync Tasks. (Encrypts both filename and file contents)

[-] FederalAlienSmuggler@feddit.de 1 points 3 years ago

Is the encryption a builtin thing with TrueNas Scale?

[-] dyslexicjedi@lemmy.world 2 points 3 years ago

Yes. Under the hood, it just uses "rclone crypt" functionality. It's a little hard to find, it's all the way down on the Cloud Sync Task setup but it's there.

Okay, cool. I'm also using rclone crypt and was always wondering how safe the encryption is in comparison to Cryptomator or Veracrypt
