I tried 4 different similar packages; maybe I remember that detail wrong, but I could not get Restic working on older machines for some reason. Rclone was so simple and it just worked, so I did not investigate further. Is Restic much better?

  You might be thinking of Borg Backup, which is written in Python: https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/ https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/

Yeah for me the hardest part about installing restic was remembering how to unzip a bz2 file. I don't know what more you can ask for than a statically linked binary...

  Ok, cannot have been Restic then; thanks, I am going to try that one now. And find out what the other Python one was; I was following an SO recommendation.
