Isn’t that creating hardlinks between source and dest? Hard links only work on the same drive. And I’m not sure how that gives you “time travel”, as in, browsing snapshots or file states at the different times you ran rsync.
Edit: ah the hard link is between dest and the link-dest argument, makes more sense.
I wouldn’t bundle fs and backup compression in the same bucket, because they have vastly different reqs. Backup compression doesn’t need to be optimized for fast decompression.
yeah, more often than not I notice the bottleneck being the storage drive itself, not rsync.
yeah, it doesn’t, it’s just for file transfer. It’s only useful if transferring files somewhere else counts as a backup for you.
To me, the file transfer is just a small component of a backup tool.
It works fine if all you need is transfer, my issue with it it’s just not efficient. If you want a “time travel” feature, your only option is to duplicate data. Differential backups, compression, and encryption for off-site ones is where other tools shine.
I tried portainer for a while, but it was almost useless to me, as I’d always end up in the command line anyway. So I dropped that and any other dashboard idea.
Yeah, I have everything as compose.yaml stacks and those stacks + their config files are in a git repo.
it might be worth watching this PR for memos, which adds encryption at rest. I can’t vouch for it, as I didn’t read the code but I do use memos and might consider this if it’s merged.

This is not E2EE, but I don’t think E2EE is that important if you’re hosting your own data. And clients can use TLS for encryption in transit.
I also have no idea if my place has PVC or galvanized steel plumbing; or its designed electrical load. Why should users care about the DBMS.
Navigating on a 6" screen is pretty annoying after getting used to the larger one.
I see, honestly, if I could afford it, I’d just buy a newer card. But if you’re stuck with it for now, I get it.
why do you need to use 470?
To do it on a live system, /home
and the partition shrinking have to be neighbors, and the shrinking partition needs to be unmounted. I think it might be possible with resize2fs, but I don’t have a guide.
yeah, I decided to try it and it’s working for me too; at least for the usual sync operations
Also tried with the oldest version of the fork on f-droid, it could not import the old app’s config.
I tried it, but it didn’t work for me, so I had to reintroduce the device and share the directories again. But you don’t have to transfer all the data again, it’ll just do a full scan and transfer the diff as usual.
For those using it on Android, a reminder that the older app is not maintained anymore and you might want to replace it with Catfriend1/syncthing-android.
But also - maybe wait for the app v2.0 to be released to upgrade the desktop client at the same time; I don’t know if using v2.0 on the desktop would work with the v1.x app.
fwiw, I used Kopia for around a year, but eventually the backup got corrupted with a
BLOB not found
error and there was no way to fix it.similar to this issue, except that nothing would fix or improve the situation https://github.com/kopia/kopia/issues/1087
and because it seemed to be an issue with the repo (not just with a snapshot), the remote copy was also borked. I couldn’t even list the snapshots.
I’ve since migrated to Rustic (though Restic might be more reliable today).
This seems to be the a similar issue too, but I was nowhere near the scale of this user. There are other similar reports that may or may not be linked to the same root cause, so it’s hard to say how rare this problem is.
