   Is there really no Linux incremental backup solution that includes encryption in the way Time Machine does and no I do not want three rsyncs in a trenchcoat thank you

     @mjg59 Borg backup and restic are two.

     There's also pika backup, which is a GUI frontend for Borg.

     Of the tools mentioned above, I have only used borg directly. Have been using it successfully for years at this point.

     @mjg59 I switched from rsnapshot (rsync in trenchcoats) to Borg. Loving it. I do hourly backups which take a few mins on each machine, to a central backup server over an encrypted connection. WFM YMMV
