- cyphar 8y agoYup, though due to Australian internet I don't use restic's support for non-local backends (otherwise getting a snapshot list or doing a purge+clean is painfully slow) -- I have a sync job that runs every day that uses rclone to sync the restic backup store.
- ViViDboarder 8y agoSame! I’ve been using Duplicity for most of my backups and had been considering switching to Borg, but passed when I found it couldn’t use B2 as a backend. Now I’m using both Duplicity and Restic, for different backups.
