Duplicity
I really like restic, and am personally happy to use it via the command line. It's very fast and efficient! However, I do wish there was better tooling / wrappers around it. For example, Pika Backup is a popular UI for Borg of which no equivalent exists for Restic. I'd love to be able to set something simple up on my partner's Macbook.
For my own purposes, I've been using a script I found on Github[0] for a while, but it only really supports Backblaze B2 AFAIK.[1]
I've been meaning to try autorestic[2] and resticprofile[3] as they are potentially more flexible than the script I'm currently using, and prestic[4] looks intriguing for my partner's use, but seems to have very few users. And the fact that there are so many competing tools makes it difficult to land on one.

Advice request on the best approach to backup with restic
I have looked up and found restic to be a good choice for the many advantages it provides (reduplication, incremental copies, encryption, free, ...). I looked also at the many projects built on it to make it easier to configure (resticker, autorestic). I already made a simple test locally for my MainPC (with docker swarm) and it seems to be fine.

What backup plan do I use?
You should consider setting up something like restic (maybe w/ autorestic) or borg and getting proper incremental backups.

duplicati has crossed me for the last time; looking for other recovery options to back up my system and docker containers (databases + configs)
I’m also using Autorestic to configure Restic via a YAML file, and I recently wrote an Ansible role to do this across multiple devices 🙂 if interested you can check it out here: https://github.com/dbrennand/ansible-role-autorestic

Which service to backup your important files ?
There's also [autorestic][https://github.com/cupcakearmy/autorestic), it's worth checking.

Backup Size for 5TB HDD?
The majority of my storage will be large media, documents, and the like that won't update much and I plan to do the backup with autorestic so I'll only be backing up the file changes (which won't be many/frequent).

Restic: Backups Done Right
Autorestic wraps restic in YAML config files, and for that I am very grateful.

Suggestions for automatic self-hosted database backups?
Maybe autorestic or rclone.

Just found what appears to be a great backup program, Kopia.
There’s also a wrapper for restic to make management easier using yaml config (autorestic) and a well-regarded docker image (resticker)

Duplicity
I used this many, many years ago but switched to Borg[0] about five years ago. Duplicity required full backups with incremental deltas, which meant my backups ended up using too much disk space. Borg lets you prune older backups at will, because of chunk tracking and deduplication there is no such thing as an incremental backup.

What do you use for VPS backup? Would improved borg setup - pull mode - be enough? Or, do you use something else?
Currently, I'm auto-backing it up with borg (push mode) through wireguard tunnel to NAS behind ISP's CGNAT. The borg takes care of deduplication in SQL file, so incremental update (even in append-only mode) is very small for PostgreSQL dump.

Kopia: Open-Source, Fast and Secure Open-Source Backup Software
Borg 2 has been in development for nearly a year and a half [1] and may probably be released early next year, i.e., early 2024 (just a guess, seeing that even RC1 is not yet released and seems to have a lot of work to be done).
Does anyone know how Borg 1.x and 2 would compare to Kopia?
