bupstash VS restic

bupstash supports it, however I didn't try it out

bupstash

I tried a few backup tools and https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash is my favorite by far but it's not that well known.

It was pretty fast already and recently got multithread support. It has been the only thing usable for backing up a few TB in a raspberry for performance reasons.

Keep in mind it's relatively new and the author does not yet recommend to use in production as the only backup solution.

The authors bupstash[1] tool looks interesting.

I see there's an issue made for Windows support, how is that with Rust?

Unless it's doing low-level stuff like directory monitoring I assumed Rust would be quite portable?

Benchmarking my backup tool that was written in rust: https://github.com/andrewchambers/bupstash . Rust did not disappoint when it comes to performance, it seems to beat restic by a factor of 2x-200x depending on the benchmark.

I religiously use Google contacts. It's the simplest way to keep people contacts up to date on Android.

I archive all important documents in specific folders by subject and date. This is backed up to back blaze with restic. https://restic.net/

I use https://ente.io for pictures. I convinced my wife to use it, and she agreed to auto share her photos so I don't nag her for copies. It had simple import from Facebook and Google.

I also keep extensive journals, which really helps to tie it all together. I can basically grep for hangouts, conversations, etc.

I also separate work journal from personal, and have essentially a journal for each project. https://jodavaho.io/tags/bullet-journal.html for how.

I religiously use Google calendar for all plans, you can easily search it for past events to get dates.

I also use monicahq for some notes about things I should remember about people but the habit never stuck.

After Borg, I switched to Restic:

AFAIK, the only difference is that Restic doesn't require Restic installed on the remote server, so you can efficiently backup to things like S3 or FTP. Other than that, both are fantastic.

I'm curious, too. I know they've had some issues in the past:

On the other hand, I tested around 15,000 backups last year (multiple hourly backups, daily tests) and they all passed.

I use and recommend restic. I use it for about 60 machines on my LAN, and it's absolutely fantastic.
