Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
The main disadvantage with pure Restic is that you usually have to end up writing your own shell scripts for some configuration management because Restic itself has none of that.
Fortunately there is https://github.com/creativeprojects/resticprofile to solve that problem.

Duplicity
I really like restic, and am personally happy to use it via the command line. It's very fast and efficient! However, I do wish there was better tooling / wrappers around it. For example, Pika Backup is a popular UI for Borg of which no equivalent exists for Restic. I'd love to be able to set something simple up on my partner's Macbook.
For my own purposes, I've been using a script I found on Github[0] for a while, but it only really supports Backblaze B2 AFAIK.[1]
I've been meaning to try autorestic[2] and resticprofile[3] as they are potentially more flexible than the script I'm currently using, and prestic[4] looks intriguing for my partner's use, but seems to have very few users. And the fact that there are so many competing tools makes it difficult to land on one.

Alternative to Backblaze that does encryption AND incremental backups?
You mean encrypted snapshots of files and not snapshots of encrypted files right? because the later is not really possible. You can do incremental backups with restic and backblaze b2 though. Just setup an automated profile using resticprofile.

Help me choose between borg, restic and rclone
While we're talking restic tools, have you also tried restic-profile?

I am looking for open-source backup application alternatives
There's also restic profile. I've been using autorestic but coming from borgmatic it feels much less solid.

Duplicati: Free backup software to store encrypted backups online
There’s also resticprofile which takes care of scheduling (with launchd on macOS) and maintenance tasks for restic. I especially enjoy that resticprofile can create a prom file for the backup status that I can just scoop up to my monitoring.

Why should I switch from Restic to Borg?
Restic has a very good command line tool: resticprofile which lets you write backup profiles in an easy config file, automates the scheduling of each task along with an automatic locking system (to ensure prune never happens during backups, etc), and integration with Zabbix for monitoring the status of the backups (i.e. being alerted when backups fail). Restoring files and searching for files is done via the CLI.

Researching what to use for purely local Linux home server backup (no cloud backups)
Pro: No need for a special index database. The chunks are placed in the file system. This explains it in greater detail. Seems to place great emphasis on reliability, which is important for me. Versioning is also supported.

Your privacy is optional
Having all your data in one place isn't wise though, so I am planning on storing encrypted backups on Dropbox and Backblaze B2 using Duplicity so that I am following the 3-2-1 backup rule.

Ask HN: How do you do backups for personal/home server?
I tried a bunch of different ways but ultimately settled on Duplicacy [0].
It runs inside a Docker container and backs up both my data as well as configurations like my docker compose file and smb.conf.
Off site storage was Backblaze B2, but I moved to Hetzner. Likely will move back just because B2 is cheaper and a bit faster for my region.
Another layer of backup I do is use Duplicacy to backup to a portable hard drive occasionally that I keep off site.
