Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
- for important files, a separate box where I have borgmatic [1] in deduplication mode installed; this is updated once in a while
Just curious: Do you have any reason to believe that such a data corruption bug is likely in ZFS? It seems like saying that ext4 could have a bug and you should also store stuff on NTFS, just in case (which I think does not make sense..).

Kopia: Open-Source, Fast and Secure Open-Source Backup Software
Not really dumb. I do use them too but with Borgbackup on the top (since they support it natively).
I found Borgmatic ( https://torsion.org/borgmatic/ ) to be the best way to run my backups. It takes care of everything from pruning to verifying the checksum etc... and it integrates with some monitoring (like cronitor).
So Borgmatic + rsync.net is the best combo

KBackup vs rsync?
For backups I use Borg myself. If you need a GUI, you can use Vorta or Pika. With borgmatic, there is also a wrapper that extends the range of functions of Borg.

Suggestions for Incremental Backup Software
Furthermore, Borgmatic is a wrapper for Borg that extends or improves the range of functions.

BorgBackup 1.2.4 released
For those of you not familiar, borgmatic is a very convenient tool which runs as a wrapper around borg.

Server lost power, world not loading correctly
I recommend Borg and Borgmatic. Automated, easy to setup, capable of notifying you if anything happens, deduplication and compression makes backups smaller, etc.

Any advice/best practices for how to backup emails of Linux-based mail server
To add to this, Borg backup can be a little daunting to configure. There is a wrapper script called Borgmatic that distills it down to a single yaml config file. There are also some cloud hosts like BorgBase and rsync.net with native Borg support.

Ask HN: Best useful tools that are helpful in your business?
We use syncthing to share files between our machines. It avoids is having to use dropbox / OneDrive etc. You just choose a folder and it automatically syncs it in the background.

LocalSend: Open-source, cross-platform file sharing to nearby devices
This very hn entries is bust contradicting your statement.
Also what about syncthing[1] (for recurrent/permanent sync) and croc[2] (for one time copies) ?
I have used both for a number of years already.

Ask HN: How best to sync a subset of my files with a friend?
I would use syncthing, which is open source at https://syncthing.net/.
After minimal setup, it just works(tm).
You have a normal directory in your filesystem, that is synced to the other peers (which you set up in the "minimal setup").
I have been using it for years, and it works well. It has no problems crossing os'es (i.e. windows -> linux, linux -> mac)
For windows I usually recommend https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor, but vanilla syncthing works fine too (but don't try to mix them!)

Free and Open Source Alternative to Airdrop
Do consider Syncthing particularly if you are using Android. If using apple iOS you'd need the möbius sync client.

One thing that it beats the cloud / centralized sync on is because the connection is direct between devices when the initial transfer is completed the file is completely there on the other device. With a cloud type of sync you do the transfer twice. I've seen stack up on large media or with the structure of cloud services pricing making it expensive depending on how your workflow is setup with inside and outside parties. For example, Dropbox deduction from all parties' storage limits not just the sharer.
You can also point Syncthing at a local sync of Dropbox or Google drive and then forward the files to other recipients from that for some purposes.

Obsidian 1.5 Desktop (Public)
I think sync is a non-feature, as you can just ride on your existing solution.
For example, I use syncthing [1] with Obsidian to sync files off-cloud.

What do you use to write your fan fictions?
When I was 14 and just getting started, I used Notepad. Upgraded to Wordpad when I realized I loved putting italics in every other sentence, moved to Google Docs at around 25 when I started writing on my phone and wanted to sync with my computer, finally moved to Obsidian a few months ago (with Syncthing for syncing) when I decided I don't want to live in Google's house where they can burn my stuff down whenever they want.
