Comment on Backups: Am I doing this right?

Yeah there are plenty of advantages of a full system backup, like not having to worry that you’re backing up all the specific directories needed.
Personally I do both, I have a full system backup to local storage, and then to Backblaze B2 using Restic I backup only the really important stuff.
