From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Currently I use Borg Backup with Vorta as a GUI. I don't really do anything automated/scheduled, I just back it up manually to an external SSD every few days or so. I pretty much do my whole
/home
folder, except for a couple of subfolders that aren't really necessary (andVideos
, which I back up separately.)I do eventually want to upgrade to a NAS, but I'm waiting until we move to start setting that up. Also I don't really have an off-site plan yet which I know is bad, but I need to figure that out.
