SpiderOak

As I wrote earlier, I have been using the SpiderOak One Backup service for a while now. It costs more than the usage of Duplicity with Backblaze B2, but it promises to work better. Also it creates backups continiously, so I don’t have to wait for the full hour to have a backup. Using inotify it will automatically put files into the queue just as I save them. I really like this. My laptop could burst in flames and I would only lose a few minutes of work. ...

I routinely do backups on external hard drives using backintime. It is a tool which uses hard links to create snapshots with deduplication. Restoring is super easy, either use the tool or copy files manually. The directory hierarchy had a directory with time as filename and your whole directory tree below that. ...
