The main things that come to mind are you have to test/monitor 2 seperate actions instead of 1, and restores of single files could be more difficult since you need to login to the backup server, restore the file from a snapshot, then also copy that file back to your PC.
How does that get sent over rsync though? Wouldn’t you need snapshots on the remote destination server?
Why not just use a backup utility instead?
What happens if you accidentally overwrite something important in a document and save it though? If there’s no incremental versioning you can’t recover from that.
Yeah but then it’s not really a good backup!
Don’t log in to the container shell to edit files, just edit the file on your host directly.
Make sure the permissions allow the user searxng is running as access as well.
Nah there’s no debugging here, just edit the config file on the host where it’s stored exactly like you would on a native install.
Surely restic or borg would be better for backups?
Rsync can send files and not delete stuff, but there’s no versioning or retention settings.
Your password manager does this too!
Different tools for different use cases IMO.
But neither do backups.
Firefox (yep, the browser)
You can’t safely update anything even if it’s ‘stable’.
But I do auto update and just make sure my backups are working properly in case something breaks that I can’t fix.
Potentially an overheating NVMe drive maybe? They can run quite hot without a heat sink on them.
Yeah in that case the app is just handy for searching or viewing photos by face.
Because of the anti fingerprinting changes so many sites don’t work in it though, mapping utilities in particular, and banks.
Interesting, background sync was completely broken on the new beta timeline for me. I had to open the app, and disable then reenable sync every time I had new photos.
I’m back on the old version because it’s basically 100% reliable.
I’ve never had any issues with the old setup oddly enough, they talk like it barely functions lol
The app let’s you see/search all your photos, I have a ton of photos not on my phone.
I dont believe any of them will compress images, or disk backups, so I wouldn’t worry about using compression.
Correct yeah, you’d still need a way on the host to check if the mount is ready though before starting the service. Or you could just do a fixed delay time.
For #3 every service will say something like that, even with paid accounts.
