🏠 Homelab Backup Evolution! 🏠

Following the "3-2-1 is the minimum" rule, I've expanded my VPS container backup strategy:

✅ Hetzner Cloud (Borg) → Offsite long-term storage
✅ Synology NAS (rsync) → Local fast recovery

The new setup does nightly automated syncs of all /opt/containers/ data to my Synology - with deduplication and all the bells and whistles! 📦

Particularly clever: hardlinks for space-efficient snapshots and morning email reports. Now I know right with my coffee ☕ whether all backups ran cleanly.

Lesson learned: Cloud-only is good, but having a local NAS mirror for quick restores is pure gold! 💪

How do you solve this in your setups? Also multi-tier or everything to cloud?

Australia's strict data retention laws mean we have many honeypots for hackers. After years of hack after hack, with a raft of highly sensitive data exposed, this is what the govt do—Ban under 16s from social media, which is another way of mandating people share their ID with social media companies.

The eSafety Commissioner doesn't seem particularly concerned with data safety. Commissioner of Moral Panics might be more accurate.

pretalx.linuxtage.atMicroCeph: Simplifying Storage from Laptop to Data Center Grazer Linuxtage 2025Need to get started quickly with storage? Need a robust storage cluster that doesn't require a team of experts to maintain and grow? MicroCeph aims to make software defined storage effortless to install, and scales from your laptop to dozens of racks. MicroCeph is a self-contained packaging of the Ceph cluster software -- it integrates well into existing environments, and is great choice wherever you need repeatable installs and ease of operation, such as edge clouds, labs or remote sites. This talk will give an overview of MicroCeph and shows use cases and demos. It will show how to scale from a single-node dev environment to a multi-node cluster, how object storage and remote block devices can be provided. Also we'll talk about various deployment options and integrations into OpenStack and container environments.

I may be moving the dpw.social instance overseas. This might be an opportunity for me to actually upgrade the software I'm running to the 4.x branch. AFAIK, this will break a few things, so anyone actually using my instance (listens.... crickets...) dm me or email me and we can see about data migration.
