An option to replace something vaguely like Macrium Reflect on Windows for CachyOS is:

If you want to create an offline version of your entire OS installation so it can be recovered on a new drive then this toolkit will allow you to create an .ISO of your current OS installation 😁

Windows allows for bootable entire OS drive images backups from within running system using VSS (Volume Shadow Services) which is actually a very cool feature.

🚨 Breaking News: The Apple Photos app is corrupting images! 😱 Who would've guessed that trusting a trillion-dollar company with your precious memories could backfire? But don't worry, just write a blog post about it like everyone else who gave up trying to fix it. 🤦‍♂️

Apple Photos App Corrupts Images

The Apple Photos app sometimes corrupts images when importing from my camera. I just wanted to make a blog post about it in case anyone else runs into the problem. I’ve seen other references to this online, but most of the people gave up trying to fix it, and none of them went as far as I did to debug the issue. I’ll try to describe the problem, and the things I’ve tried to do to fix it. But also note that I’ve (sort of) given up on the Photos app too. Since I can’t trust it to import photos from my camera, I switched to a different workflow.

Sunday Paper - Backups

The article by Jim Kasson at Lensrentals discusses the transition from film to digital photography and the need for a different approach by backing up digital images rather than archiving them.
