Ask HN: What is your approach for managing personal digital assets?
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.

Duplicity
+1 for restic. I tried various solutions and restic is the best by far. So fast, so reliable.
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.
https://apps.gnome.org/DejaDup/ is using this as backend. It also has a experimental option to use https://github.com/restic/restic instead of duplicity.

The Drive Stats of Backblaze Storage Pods
I'm curious, too. I know they've had some issues in the past:
https://github.com/restic/restic/issues/3268#issuecomment-78...
On the other hand, I tested around 15,000 backups last year (multiple hourly backups, daily tests) and they all passed.
I use B2 as the backend for my personal backups using restic (which I would highly recommend https://github.com/restic/restic). I don't have a ton of data to backup, so even with hourly backups (restic only backs up when there are changes) I have ~100GB and it runs me a whopping $0.60/month. I almost feel guilty when I get the bill. But the minute I need to pick a storage platform in a professional context I know what my first choice will be.
(I am _not_ affiliated with Backblaze in anyway. Just a happy user)

Encrypted Backup Shootout
I created nFreezer ("encrypted freezer") for this purpose at the end of 2020: https://github.com/josephernest/nfreezer.
Main features:
* encrypted at rest locally (the data is never decrypted on the remote server)
* handles file renames / moves (no data is re-sent, save GB of transfer!)
* single Python file of ~ 250 lines of code. It is easy to read the code and decide if you like/trust it or not
