Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-

TrueNAS zfs snapshots, and then a weekly Cron rsync to a servarica VPS with unlimited expanding storage.
If you use a VPS as a backup target, you can also format it with ZFS and use replication. Sending snapshots is faster than using file-level backup tool, especially with a lot of small files.
Interesting, I have noticed it's very slow with initial backups. So snapshot replication sends one large file? What if you want to recover individual files?
You can access ZFS snapshots from the hidden
.zfsfolder at the root dir of your volume. From there you can restore individual files.There is also a command line tool (httm) that lists all snapshotted versions of a files and allows you to restore them.
If the snapshot you want to restore from is on a remote machine, you can either send it over or scp/rsync the files from the .zfs directory.
