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.

    Got a Veeam community instance running on each of my VMware nodes, backing up 9-10 VMs each.

    Using Cloudberry for my desktop, laptop and a couple Windows VMs.

    Borg for non-VMware Linux servers/VMs, including my WSL instances, game/AI baremetal rig, and some Proxmox VMs I’ve got hosted with a friend.

    Each backup agent dumps its backups into a share on my nas, which then has a cron task to do weekly uploads to GDrive. I also manually do a monthly copy to an HDD and store it off-site with a friend.
