Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

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
- Ask HN: How do you do backups for personal/home server?
-
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.
-
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.

Sharing my quick start sheet for new users, and looking for cloud backup like Arq
I don't know, I only know the tool by name. I myself use Borg for years. If you want a graphical interface, you can use Vorta or Pika. With borgmatic there is a wrapper for Borg that extends or improves the functionality.
-
I installed Arch, and now what?
a good alternative to that would be borg, if you want a slightly easier way to automate then use borgmatic, both available in the official community mirrors.

Ask HN: Anyone looking for contributors for their open source projects
Actually yes! It could even be paid in the context of this year's Google Summer of Code:
https://github.com/borgbase/vorta
Or if you join as mentor, you will be supporting the Python Foundation.
If interested, just email the address in my HN profile.

To encrypt my system
If you need to encrypt your backups (or even if you don't) I would suggest borgbackup and vorta, it makes differential backups so each one after the first is only the size of the changes mine are roughly 50 MiB each, so its much faster and space efficient than whole backups using something like tar or rsync.

Mounting a remote filesystem over ssh - a story on how I finally managed to backup my phone
Since I know that borg backup it is a pretty solid tool I wanted to give it a try and I ended up choosing Vorta to have a nice GUI experience.
-
Will kup or bup ever be included in the Fedora repos?
Different UI and backend, but would vorta (borg front end) work?
-
Path to a free, self-taught education in Computer Science
A bit like me. Got started setting up a webshop for my first startup and had to learn Apache and PHP.
If anyone with similar skills (Python, Docker, Shell) reads this and looks do get started, do check out our Google Summer of Code projects for this year. You'll get paid and can pick any task in this field: https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code...

For the developers in this subredsit, how is your overall experience with void linux, and how stable would you say it is?
I had to compile gcalcli, which eventually got merged in the repos. I also compiled Vorta and Grace.
- BorgBackup, Deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption
-
selfhosted backup solution?
For the client side, you can use either Vortafor graphical clients, or borgmatic for headless servers. (Or just borg, but borgmatic is better imo)
-
Beware that BorgBackup 2.0 will soon come, breaking compatibility with current repositories and scripts.
Over at Vorta (feature branch) we mostly adjusted to the latest betas. So I expect to have support for both versions, once there is an RC. Borgmatic added support in Oct.

How do you backup your Docker volumes?
We already maintain a UI for Borg, if you're looking for that. It's open source and included in many distros, like Debian and Fedora. Check it out here: https://github.com/borgbase/vorta
