    This is super helpful. I’m hoping we see something like this as a feature baked in though. Like multiple backup sources with different schedules
  • Slow backup even without changes?

    @nebulon : interesting about Nextcloud I used to have 4 x Nextcloud instances in my Cloudron server (different projects). 3 of them about 10Gb of files (other smaller). My backups were working but slow. Even after switching to 'better' VPS provider. So after testing Seafile for a while, I have moved 2 of the Nextcloud instances over to a single Seafile VPS (with different libraries for segregation). The other 2 Nextcloud instances will follow. I have nothing against Nextcloud and been very happy for it for long time. But if it is really only being used for file collaboration and device syncing, and you don't actually NEED the extra facilities it provides, my personal view is that Seafile is a better solution. So would be awesome to get Seafile onto Cloudron. But I'm quite happy running it on a separate VPS.

    @malvim said in Backup Improvements: Restic Backend: @necrevistonnezr how have you been testing backups? I have a raspberry pi at home, set up with restic/rclone backups as well. Once in a while I mount one of the latest snapshots and check a bit randomly if things "look ok". I'd like to have a better system to check if backups are okay, so any pointers would be appreciated. https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/045_working_with_repos.html#checking-integrity-and-consistency and, as I said, spot checks for files with restic-browser.
