What's your backup strategy?

I use borgbackup + zabbix for monitoring.

At home, I have all my files get backed up to rsync.net since the price is lower for borg repos.

At work, I have a dedicated backup server running borgbackup that pulls backups from my servers and stores it locally as well as uploading to rsync.net. The local backup means restoring is faster, unless of course that dies.

Anyone else want LMDE to become the primary release?

Personally, I'm fine with the Ubuntu base. Canonical does a great job.

I feel Mint takes an already great distro and makes it way better.

I've used LMDE and it works well but keeping a Ubuntu base means we can reference soooo many Ubuntu based help forums.

If Mint is already removing the parts of Ubuntu we don't like then great, let them keep doing it 🙂
