What's your backup strategy?
I see many posts asking about what other lemmings are hosting, but I'm curious about your backups.
I'm using duplicity myself, but I'm considering switching to borgbackup when 2.0 is stable. I've had some problems with duplicity. Mainly the initial sync took incredibly long and once a few directories got corrupted (could not get decrypted by gpg anymore).
I run a daily incremental backup and send the encrypted diffs to a cloud storage box. I also use SyncThing to share some files between my phone and other devices, so those get picked up by duplicity on those devices.

Do you encrypt your Backups on the Hetzner server?
Yup, both NASs are running TrueNas Scale, which have a setting for Encryption on Cloud Sync Tasks. (Encrypts both filename and file contents)
Is the encryption a builtin thing with TrueNas Scale?
Yes. Under the hood, it just uses "rclone crypt" functionality. It's a little hard to find, it's all the way down on the Cloud Sync Task setup but it's there.
Okay, cool. I'm also using rclone crypt and was always wondering how safe the encryption is in comparison to Cryptomator or Veracrypt
