I am using duplicati and thinking of switching to Borg. What do you use and why?

I use my own scripts with rsync etc, I don't back up my OS itself since I have installing it automated with scripts as well. I just back up specific things I need with my scripts.

automated with scripts

would you like to share those or do you have references for creating such scripts? this is on my to do list since years but I always struggle where to begin with.

They're very personalized to my setup, so they're not particularly useful in general - I'd recommend something more like using this guide which seems to be pretty good: https://jumpcloud.com/blog/how-to-use-rsync-remote-backup-linux-system
