A community member asked Moreno Razzoli (@morrolinux) if there was a #FOSS alternative to #Dropbox that works well for both personal use & companies. The answer turned into a surprising @OpenCloud vs. @nextcloud deep dive.

Here’s what the #opensource pro says 👇🐧💾

Yo Fedi!

Is there anyone here who uses Backblaze with Linux? Do you use the CLI client and scripts, or a third-party tool from this list at the link? Infodump on me please.

Does anyone know of a tool like YoYota or Archiware P5 which will run on Linux?
I need something which can archive an arbitrary set of files to a NAS share or disk location (as a compressed file), LTO tape, and ideally to Backblaze or S3.

I have too many old "not worked on in ages" projects and backup CDs kicking around and need to tidy up.

Edit: I know of Bacula but find it a pain to use.

#RaspberryPi owners, how do you back up your #RPi?
I don’t have an extra hard drive, so I need to back up to #GoogleDrive. I’ve installed #Rclone and tried creating a #BASH script, but I’m struggling with it.
If you’ve set up something similar or have recommendations for an efficient backup workflow, I’d love to hear them! Bonus points if you know any good courses or resources to improve my scripting skills.
