I'm thinking about making #UX for a #backup tool for #QubesOS - I wonder, dear Mastodon people, what backup solutions (for entire system or for parts of it) do you like? Which do you hate? I know that the ideal is "backup just happens", but that has never truly been my experience with, well, anything. The current state of backuping in Qubes is atrocious, so I want to look to my betters on that.

@cstross I agree.... mostly. I mean, this is how I learned linux: typing various stuff I saw over someone's hand / found online (not even googled, I think, it might have been before I found google) and seeing what breaks. I'd add "on a system you care about or connected to things you care about".

@jernej__s @cstross that works! My first encounter was when I visited the school admin and said "give me a linux CD". He gave me Slackware. It was extremely educational :D
