My goal is to to fully ditch Google Photos for Immich. I have about ~3TB of photos and videos. Looking for a super simple way of backing up the library to cloud storage in case of a drive failure.

Ideally, this will require nothing on my part besides copying files into a given folder. And ideally the storage will be encrypted and have basic privacy assurances.

Also if it matters my home server is running Debian.

    Does borg need an entire python venv?

    I was looking at “modern” backup tools while back and when I saw borg was python I decided not to bother.

    Instead I focused on restic for a little while and then rsync was already there and I already knew the commands so… Rsync. Though I still have restic on my list.

      If you want to go on the restic route, you can try BackRest: it’s a web interface for restic with graphs and all.
