I’m a fan of restic. I’m using it for workstations and homelab servers. I have two complaints. Scheduling backups isn’t integrated into the tool (but other wrapper tools like resticprofile do a great job of cooking the gap. And restoring from backup is more of a headache than I’d like.

One rule of thumb I’ve heard for estimating repairs as a homeowner is to take however long you think it should take, double the number and increase the time unit

• "It should take a day" --> 2 weeks
• "It’s a short project. Maybe a month." --> 2 years
