After two weeks of running #Kopia[1] as backup solution on my Linux and Mac machines at home, I will decommission the samba/timemachine setup I used in the past for backing up my Mac. Kopia is Open Source, fast, reliable and the built-in deduplication saves tons of space on my garage backed S3 storage[2]. And yes, I have extensively tested and verified the restore process :)
