I recently implemented a backup workflow for me. I heavily use restic for desktop backup and for a full system backup of my local server. It works amazingly good. I always have a versioned backup without a lot of redundant data. It is fast, encrypted and compressed.

But I wondered, how do you guys do your backups? What software do you use? How often do you do them and what workflow do you use for it?

    My work flow is pretty similar to yours:

    For my desktop and laptops: systemd timer and service that backups every 15 minutes using restic to my NAS.

    For my NAS : daily backup using restic + ZFS snapshots.

    All restic backups are then uploaded daily to Backblaze B2.
