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.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

I see syncthing being recommended, and like, it's fine.
But keep in mind it's NOT a backup tool, it's a syncing tool.
If something happens to the data on your client, for example, it will happily sync and overwrite your Linux box's copy with junk, or if you delete something, it'll vanish in both places.
It's not a replacement for recoverable-in-a-disaster backups, and you should make sure you've got a copy somewhere that isn't subject to the client nuking it if something goes wrong.
Thanks for the heads up, yea I'm well aware of that, I use it to, well... sync, my phone pictures with my PC.
You could use SyncThing and then run a backup on synched folder on the server
