Backup tools are nothing until it can prove its reliability which can only be proved with many years of usage. In that regard, I don't trust anything but Borg and zfs.

I only think it has reached its mass adoption when people realize its usage as store of value that is decoupled from any other third party influence instead of as a risk asset that is linked to Nasdaq.

It's similar except you or the manufacturer can't cheat to duplicate a card or the manufacturer can't suddenly produce 10x more cards because the cards sell well. So, inherently they have different purpose.

Didn't know math equation is literally nothing. You may get amazed as many times you need before learning why people find value in it.

How come people's only definition of value of currency is that it can pay taxes? Everything else's value is determined by the market and not the government, so how does Bitcoin have trouble finding value if the market thinks it ha

How's that so? The attacker has no knowledge of the user name of the key, unless that is also leaked, then only white listed IP may help.

I'd expect a (ex?) crypto developer to think security from another perspective, but what if the key is leaked? It's time another prevention system may save your day.

Dismissing security through obscurity as pointless is an advice from the 90s. Basically security comes with layers of obscurity. Even key based auth is a random string that no one is meant to guess. If you have more obscurity, the less chan

$40/year on regular pricing sounds quite expensive for stuff you have other means of accomplishing.

Why does it matter if your data is on someone else's disk if they're encrypted before sending? Someone else's disks are far better managed than your disks and aren't susceptible to any local accidents.

I meant "HDD" based block storage which should be far cheaper than SSD/NVMe based ones when you don't need performance.

If you're a big tech and even considered using duplicati, you should look around more.

Agree duplicati is quite immature. I've looked around quite a bit too but did you actually use restic and duplicacy? They've eaten my RAM quite heavily, it caused the machine to freeze up by exhausting the RAM on not that huge dat
