How does this compare? It appears to only backup chosen apps, not necessarily a whole cluster?

K8up currently is optimized for PVs and will probably be able to backup objects in the future. It's not meant for cluster disaster recovery or full-cluster backup. (Deployment artefacts should anyways come from GitOps)
