In addition to restic: rustic

It’s a rewrite of restic in rust, but has a few more quality of life features and a config file for setting params (instead of restic only having cli flags).

It’s what changed my backups from something I’d poke at every few days to completely on autopilot.

The readme has this note.

> Stability rustic currently is in beta state and misses regression tests. It is not recommended to use it for production backups, yet.

I'd prefer rededup (technology wise), but it has not many convenience features and a small userbase.

Killer feature is backup without providing the decrypt key, but restic has a huge userbase and a more promising future
