Ask HN: Anyone looking for contributors for their open source projects
Actually yes! It could even be paid in the context of this year's Google Summer of Code:
https://github.com/borgbase/vorta
Or if you join as mentor, you will be supporting the Python Foundation.
If interested, just email the address in my HN profile.

What's your backup flow on Mac with Borg like?
I use the Vorta Borg Desktop Client and the backups live on an inexpensive Storage VPS.

To encrypt my system
If you need to encrypt your backups (or even if you don't) I would suggest borgbackup and vorta, it makes differential backups so each one after the first is only the size of the changes mine are roughly 50 MiB each, so its much faster and space efficient than whole backups using something like tar or rsync.

Mounting a remote filesystem over ssh - a story on how I finally managed to backup my phone

Path to a free, self-taught education in Computer Science
A bit like me. Got started setting up a webshop for my first startup and had to learn Apache and PHP.
If anyone with similar skills (Python, Docker, Shell) reads this and looks do get started, do check out our Google Summer of Code projects for this year. You'll get paid and can pick any task in this field: https://github.com/borgbase/vorta/wiki/Google-Summer-of-Code...

For the developers in this subredsit, how is your overall experience with void linux, and how stable would you say it is?
I had to compile gcalcli, which eventually got merged in the repos. I also compiled Vorta and Grace.

Back Up Storage options
I use Arq Premium backup services They supply the backup software and the cloud storage

ThinMachine – A $25 Thin Client macOS Time Machine Appliance
People who want something similar may want to look at Arq [1]. Similar to restic, it provides incremental encrypted backups to most cloud providers (or a machine with SSH). But it is a Mac app, making it easy to configure and maintain. I never had issues with data corruption so far.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with them, just a happy user for 9 years.

What am I looking for!?
Sending it to the NAS should create a copy automatically to BOTH an online server (I was thinking dropbox, but the space might be too limited. Maybe AWS? I've used https://www.arqbackup.com/ on my computer before so something similar would be great) and a second drive (so I guess I'm looking at a 2-drive NAS that I can setup as master-slave).

Guys I’m scared 😭 my life is on my computer and I don’t know how to fix it
For actual off-site backups, using something like https://www.backblaze.com or use https://www.arqbackup.com and your own choice cloud storage provider.

Anyone use Veeam Backup for Mac?
Curious too. On the Mac side, I feel like I mostly hear about Backblaze for cloud backups, but I do like Arq for pushing to any of the typical cloud storage options.

Digital clutter: Learning to let go and stop hoarding terabytes
Regarding Arq backup: if you are worried about using a proprietary (enrypted) and closed-source backup format in case the company were to go under, they have an open source command-line restore tool:
https://github.com/arqbackup/arq_restore
I've been using Arq for years, but I need to look into the "Glacier Deep Archive" format which is about 1/20th the cost of the fastest storage class.
