Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Borg Backup would also fit the bill for backups going forward, especially if OP is still backing up to a local server (as opposed to cloud object storage).
I haven't tried Borg, but have noticed it mentioned pretty often in data hoarder forums. What do you like about it?
It deduplicates aggressively at the block level. So if your files don't change much, each additional backup takes very little space. And if a file changes a little, Borg only backs up what's changed instead of the whole file again.
Borg also has a rich ecosystem of wrappers and tools (borgmatic, Vorta, etc.) that extend its functionality and make it easier to use.
Interesting, sounds like it's worth checking out. Plus as a star trek fan, I approve of the name 😄
I like Kopia, similar feature set to Borg but I prefer its UI
