Opportunity for beginners: Some code cleaning in "Back In Time"
it is often asked by beginners how and where starting to contribute. As member of the maintenance team of Back In Time (Backup software using rsync in the back, written with Python and Qt) I would like to introduce one of our "good first issues" (#1578).

Free software project "Back In Time" requests for translation
I'm member of the upstream maintenance team of Back In Time a rsync-based backup software. No one gets payed. No company behind hit. Even the maintainers and developers are volunteers.

Why is contributing soo hard
Back In Time is a round about 15 years old backup software using rsync in the back. I'm part of the 3rd generation maintenance team there. A lot of work in investigating and fixing issues, understanding, documenting and refactoring old code.

[English -> Portuguese EU / Brazil] Text about attracting translators to a FOSS project
This request is related to an Open Source project named Back In Time. Everyone there works voluntarily and unpaid.

Is it normal practice in Github for a valid issue to be closed if the Dev can't work on it at the moment?
In my own project we do it more transparent. We close if there is a good reason for it. We don't close just because no one is working on something. If there are no resources to work in it now but it seems important we keep it open until it is fixed. We do use milestones and priority labels to give the users an idea about our plans.

Free Software project "Back In Time" requests for translators
I'm member of the maintenance team of Back In Time a rsync-based backup software.
Most of the strings are form two past developers (the founder and the past maintainer). Since last summer we took over the project and try to clean things up. Some of the source strings just got a review from a linguist and he also mentioned about that exclamation marks. But he kind of stopped at some point because it was to much. ;)
Currently the translation is locked because of maintenance issues and an open PR offering review of original English strings.
Great and thanks. Feel free to ask further questions in the Issues section of our project or the bit-dev.python.org mailing list. Of course you can contact me directly here.

Date of "069 17 - 'Back In Time' Backup Software for Linux"
I'm interested in that topic because I'm member of the maintenance team of Back In Time, the software discussed in that video. The version in video is 0.9, today Back In Time reached 1.3.3. Also interesting is that I'm the third generation of maintainers to that project. I'm not sure but 0.9 there was the fist maintainer and founder involved only.

Looking for guidance designing a multi-site backup (Veeam B&R?)
You could have a look at UrBackup. Its a client/server backup solution. Also you could rsync the local backup server too the remote lokation.

I would also recommend UrBackup. In my experience it's extremely reliable. https://github.com/uroni/urbackup_backend

Any alternatives to Macrium Reflect?
Veeam gets most of the hype these days, but if you don't need a Mac client, UrBackup is a solid option. Full & incremental file and image backups for one machine or your whole network, scheduling, rolling copies, etc.

Kopia – incremental backups, encryption, compression, data deduplication
Kopia does not 'image' your whole machine.
A real shame imaging is the time saving component if a system is not recoverable. People want to get their systems up and running as fast as possible.
A combination of imaging and file back up is the best way to do that. For now I'll stick with http://www.urbackup.org/
What are some alternatives?
TimeShift - System restore tool for Linux. Creates filesystem snapshots using rsync+hardlinks, or BTRFS snapshots. Supports scheduled snapshots, multiple backup levels, and exclude filters. Snapshots can be restored while system is running or from Live CD/USB.
Duplicati - Store securely encrypted backups in the cloud!
BorgBackup - Deduplicating archiver with compression and authenticated encryption.
Rsnapshot - a tool for backing up your data using rsync (if you want to get help, use https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/rsnapshot-discuss)
Backuppc - BackupPC is a high-performance, enterprise-grade system for backing up to a server's disk.
Bareos - Bareos is a cross-network Open Source backup solution (licensed under AGPLv3) which preserves, archives, and recovers data from all major operating systems.
snapper-gui - GUI for snapper, a tool for Linux filesystem snapshot management, works with btrfs, ext4 and thin-provisioned LVM volumes
restic - Fast, secure, efficient backup program
kopia - Cross-platform backup tool for Windows, macOS & Linux with fast, incremental backups, client-side end-to-end encryption, compression and data deduplication. CLI and GUI included.
