Successor of Keep
Posted: Mon Jul 31, 2023 5:21 pm
I have good use of Keep to keep my files synchronized with daily backups. Lately my Keep has some hardware issues so that I cannot connect an external USB disk anymore.
As I understand it you are not planning on releasing any new version of Keep. I have therefore looked at alternatives.
Do you think that the following setup clould do the job with syncronizing files and take daily backups? Two raspberry PIs with Ubuntu server, one with Nextcloud server installed and the other with a Nextcloud client and a backup cron job. I have started with the backup server since Keep is still working fine with syncronizing the files.
I tried to install S3QL as file system, but it proved to be too tricky for me. It does not seem to be supported on the newer versions of Ubuntu. Do you think Btrfs could be a decent choice for the backups? It has a snapshot features and copy-on-write which would mean that that different backup copies of the same file does not take up much extra space.
