Can you please share your backup strategies for linux? I’m curious to know what tools you use and why?How do you automate/schedule backups? Which files/folders you back up? What is your prefered hardware/cloud storage and how do you manage storage space?

    I use OneDrive. I know people will hate but it’s cheap and works on everything (well, it takes a third party tool on Linux). If I care about it it goes in OneDrive, otherwise I don’t need it that much.

      May I ask why you prefer that over Google Drive, or others such as Dropbox or Mega? I used it extensively when I used Windows, but that’s been several years.

      may I ask which third-party tool you use? i’m using onedriver and it’s pretty unreliable in my experience
