Backup method?
Borg Backup to my nextcloud server and also offsite to a BackBlaze B2 bucket. Vorta is a decent GUI.

I have also used borg in the past. It will be slower but can also work.

General tips for Debian-newbie?
People need to stop recommending rsync for backups. Some reasonable, time-tested software suggestions are Back In Time, Borg+Vorta, and my minimal CLI choice, rdiff-backup.
-
Deja Dup Backup error
i switched to borg due to the issues I had found over the internet with Deja Dup Backup. I haven't tried it but the error was probably caused due to the partition set as accessible to root only, despite the fact of using DDB as root.

Seeking Backup Solution Opinions
Well, you could, theoretically, mount windows share on linux and then use borgbackup. This has added benefit that windows PC does not need credentials to access linux, so if windows PC is compromised it will not be able to kill backups.

Container for archiving many small files
If you bundle by date-added, incremental backup stays very simple, as most files never change. If you have to bundle some other way such that all the files are always changing a little bit, some backup tools handle this well and others do not. Dar is a notably unique backup tool that can do differential/incremental binary delta backups and still have the interface "backup data is written to a plain ol' file" rather than some more complicated bidirectional communication protocol like Borg. This lets you layer on other it's-just-a-file technologies like generating .par2 files for your backups, encryption, asymmetric encryption, and simple remote transfer & storage.

What is your device backuping system?
I already found out Borg Backup but unfortunately, it only has native support for Linux. There are other clients like Vorta for Borg Backup but it basically is linux version running on windows. I have some criterias that are critical:
-
Snapshot stat changes on access
Seems you tracked this down to Linux ZFS's on-demand mounting behaviour. Solution - mount it manually.
-
I need to make a script for backups in ubuntu
Just install a regular backup program. I use borgbackup with the vorta frontend (both can be installed with apt), but there are loads of others.
-
Since linux is more secure, but not 100% secure, what are programs I should install to make my system even more secure?
For the backup I use Borg and the backups are stored on external hard drives and at rsync.net. Encrypted in all cases.

Is there a kind of "smart" compression that recognizes when multiple files in an archive are similar/same and stores it once for all of the similar/same files?
What you're looking for is deduplication. There're different kinds. The simplest is file-level deduplication, where identical files are stored only once. The nest simplest is block-level deduplication, where each file is split into fixed-sized chunks, and each unique chunk is stored only once. The most effective, though, is rolling deduplication, where a rolling checksum of the data is kept, and used to deduplicate blocks that are the same, but not at the same offset within a file. An example of a (backup) tool that can do this is Borg Backup.

Restic 0.13.0
Restic and BorgBackup really seem to be the favored solutions out there. Restic for encryption, Borg for deduplication. Or maybe bacula if you want pull based backups instead of push based.
