@lakeswimmer@aus.social I use #rsnapshot. Been using it for years and it works great. I'm also one of the project maintainers so am biased.
In a brand new installation where everything used #ZFS (and really, everything *should* use ZFS - if it's not properly supported in your OS the OS is faulty and you should use a different one) then these days I'd use zfs send/recv, wrapped in #sanoid / #syncoid - https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid

@lakeswimmer@aus.social unfortunately my future is a mixed ZFS/other stuff one, at least for a few years, and I'm not aware of any tool that combines the niftiness of both sanoid/syncoid and rsnapshot, so I'm writing my own.

@DrHyde@fosstodon.org Snapshots is an interesting idea. But moving those snapshots offsite is pretty significant when it comes to bandwidth, yes?
