Backup software
Also see Restic's list of Linux backup software. https://github.com/restic/others
- Restic 0.14.0 released with compression support
-
Restic 0.13.0
There is also https://github.com/restic/others which has some keywords (e.g. is it encrypted, does it do compression) for most FOSS backup solutions. It can be outdated or incomplete for some entries, though.

What free and open source backup software do you recommend that works on Windows?
https://github.com/restic/others is a nice collection of free software links too - you can click through those and see if any are Windows supporting. But I'd personally just go with restic.

Backblaze for Personal Backup
Backblaze is an awful piece of software when you look at it from “a backup software” point of view. It’s made pretty, simple, native (or is it Electron now?) - yes. But then it stops there. On top of that if you read there ifs, buts, and gotchas you’d want to stay far away from them.
They’ve downright absurd data deletion/retention and versioning rules.
Besides I do not trust any service that promises to give anything “unlimited” for a fixed cost.
As I usually mention in comments on this topic - I’d strongly urge people to use and support backup tools like borgbackup.org (Vorta is an excellent Borg GUI), restic.net (a GUI is glaringly missing), kopia.io (up and coming; promising; comes with a GUI), for smaller datasets there’s very good but more expansive Tarsnap (not FOSS).
And then there are others - https://github.com/restic/others#list-of-backup-software

GitMounter: A FUSE filesystem for Git repositories
The presented idea (one folder per commit, as FUSE fs) seems indeed largely impractical.
But there are good uses for mountable "git like" repos. For example for backup systems.

Any plans for kernel version in the future?
That's really good to hear! They got a (well deserved!) 100M investment recently. I didn't know it until recently, but apenwarr made some of my favourite tools (sshuttle, bup) and now tailscale! If you come across the podcast again, please post the link, I'd love to listen to it.
