Duplicati VS TimeShift

For my parents' computer, I'm using the canary version (which should be the alpha version I think?) of Duplicati since years.

It hasn't had a release in a little while but work is still occurring. https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/actions.

Hey have a read at : https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati/issues/4041

I just came across this while looking through their issues to see if anyone else had reported the firefox issue i'm running into. I'm starting to have serious reservations.

I like duplicacy because of the way it keeps the chunks in the file system, without a special database. This makes it scale up really well no matter how many backups you have (you can even have multiple computers saved). It's kind of beyond weird how you select what you want to backup with the symlinks (using the command line version), looks more like what one would make for himself in a weekend (not that I'm complaining about free software!) but it's been without bugs for me and extremely efficient. In contrast duplicati has a perfect interface, it's well maintained and everything but bogs down in any large backup, has stories about people recovering for weeks for a very few local TBs and I've experienced for myself this, granted in the python that is checking the sha256 checksums of the backups but it makes it slower many times (possibly hundreds of times), nobody checked from 2013 to 2021 (or did it on tiny datasets like 1GB or was content to wait for weeks even on something small-ish)?

The previous developer of timeshift—Tony George (GitHub) — has been the developer since 2017 (based on GitHub version history), and has recently handed off development to the Linux Mint team.

I use both timeshift & duplicity

Don't believe me or u/acejavelin69 - read what the developer has to say about user data and why it is disabled by default. https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift

Version v22.06.6 Latest

The original dev used ubuntu and only wanted to support the default ubuntu layout: https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift/issues/821

What system backup software can you recommend? In the past on Ubuntu I tested Timeshift, and it looks really cool. But the "main problem" is thing, that some options not work in Fedora: https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift, specifically BTRFS. What does it mean, this is a problem?

- [Timeshift](https://github.com/teejee2008/timeshift) or [Deja Dup](https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/DejaDup) and back-up everything.

What I tried is to add "exclude" : [ "+ /home/user1/**", "+ /root/**", "+ /home/user2/**", ], to /etc/timeshift.json as per this post but the files within those folders still aren't included in the backup.

Releases · teejee2008/timeshift Was fixed. Get PPA from that repo to have the latest release.

Are you sure you need a full on virtual machine, rather than a system snapshotting tool like Snapper or Timeshift?
