For protection against ransomware you need backups. Ideally ones that are append-only where the history is preserved.

Good call. I do some backups now but I should formalize that process. Any recommendations on selfhost packages that can handle the append only functionality?

I use and love Kopia for all my backups: local, LAN, and cloud.

I’ve used rclone with backblaze B2 very successfully. rclone is easy to configure and can encrypt everything locally before uploading, and B2 is dirt cheap and has retention policies so I can easily manage (per storage pool) how long deleted/changed files should be retained. works well.
also once you get something set up. make sure to test run a restore! a backup solution is only good if you make sure it works :)

As a person who used to be “the backup guy” at a company, truer words are rarely spoken. Always test the backups otherwise it’s an exercise in futility.

Borg backup has append only

Restic can do append-only when you use their rest server (easily deployed in a docker container)

No, I’d actually be interested in that myself. I currently just rsync to another server.
