Restic: Backups Done Right
http://duplicity.nongnu.org/ at least can use PGP public keys. I've used it for a long time and not seen any particular reason to change.

Encrypt channel.backup?
There are backup tools with built-in encryption like borg backup or duplicity, these should be fine. If you already have a backup process and it's missing encryption then you should be able to use e.g. age or gpg.

What is everyone using to backup their multiple TB's of data?
For my family photos (critical, irreplaceable, on plex), I use duplicity which can make use of Amazon Glacier and Deep Archive for really cheap storage (0.00099 /gb /month no joke) with incremental versioning and client side encryption. Long restore time, but perfect for disaster recovery on data that doesn't change much. Want to set up the same for music (which rarely but sometimes changes, e.g. Correcting tags).

What do you wish you knew before starting grad school?
And google docs / apple cloud etc. aren't proper backups. They can cancel your account, be inaccessible, or hacked even. There's software like duplicity that can upload encrypted backups to multiple services, which are handy. But in any case, if you're doing cloud backups, do do redundant local backups too. My setup is I've a USB stick tacked onto a Raspberry Pi computer, and use something called borg to do daily backups over SSH.
- [QUESTION] Simple bash script, using 'expect', to download backups off a server, will connect and only dl 10-15mb of the 10gb file before exiting. Help?

Happy World Backup Day!
I have had good success using [Duplicity](http://duplicity.nongnu.org/) via [Duply](https://www.duply.net/) for a few years now. The main point for me is that duplicity directly backs up to many cloud-storage endpoints. I'm using google drive specifically, but it supports a ton of options.

Ask HN: Codebases with great, easy to read code?
In past threads, people have mentioned enjoying my Tarsnap (https://github.com/Tarsnap/tarsnap) code. I personally think that the spiped (https://github.com/Tarsnap/spiped) code is even better.

I love the idea of tarsnap but a stable release hasn't been released since 2017. Is there a modern alternative, or is tarsnap actually still usable and secure?
I prefer Vorta myself ( https://github.com/borgbase/vorta ) as it also has incremental and encrypted backups, as well as being a fraction of the price, but tarsnap seems to still be in very-slow development: https://github.com/Tarsnap/tarsnap , so I'd say from a quick look it's still trustworthy.

What's your backup strategy?
Each server also upload their configs and « important » data (my mails and git repos) to tarsnap 3. Tarsnap storage is not as cheap as B2, so I try not to upload too much data there, but it's reliable and easy to use. It was also my first backup solution, and barely cost me 10$ a year so I keep it as a secondary backup.
