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)

DwarFS – The Deduplicating Warp-Speed Advanced Read-Only File System
I think Kopia would be great for your use case
https://kopia.io/
It has a great system to snapshot files but only store data if it's changed. I use it in an environment where I can't use something like zfs to snapshot data because I don't have the ability to make decisions about what filesystem we're using. It's been amazing, love it so much!

I Backup
I've been happy with: https://kopia.io/
Fairly easy to configure, does snapshots to S3 and has a icon in my tray I can watch :)
-
Very strange behavior/bug - devices stuck together
Btw, kopia is one fine backup tool. Apparently borgbackup is good too.

Kopia: Open-Source, Fast and Secure Open-Source Backup Software
Kopia is great, though it's worth noting for folks on Linux: non-UTF-8 paths aren't stored correctly [1] and xattrs aren't stored [2]. While most folks probably won't care about the former, the latter can could cause issues (eg. losing SELinux labels makes it difficult to restore a backup of the root filesystem on distros that use SELinux).

How I backup my servers (2023)
I think Kopia [1] is on its way to be that. I am sticking to Restic for now but it seems like the strongest contender.

Borgbase backups have been unavailable for 3 days – recovery is at 26%
I used their trial for a bit to test it out with Vorta [1] in a container. Vorta (and Borg) seemed to work fine, until I wanted to restore an archive and I noticed that my recent snapshots were completely empty. Probably because of a misconfiguration on my end though. But it made me look elsewhere. For me backups should be a fire, test and forget solution.
Recently I made the switch to Kopia [2] which seems to have feature parity with Borg (and Restic [3]). It also has a web UI which is way easier to work with than Vorta. And I can easily view, extract and restore individual files or folders from there. This gave me way more confidence about this solution. The only thing I really miss is that I cannot chose different targets for different paths. For instance, with Borg I was able to backup a partial of my Docker appdata to an external source. And I haven't found a way to do this with Kopia. Besides that I'm pretty happy with this solution and I would recommend it.
