  • Seems that Guix more hacker-friendly/explorable.

Using Borg and Google Cloud Storage for backing up personal projects

Why do you prefer [Borg] over [git-lfs]/[git-annex]?

  • GitHub LFS has a 2GB limit on file size. This never works with large projects like video productions.
  • git-annex uses symlinks to manage annexed files. This doesn't work well on Windows.

So my conclusion at the moment is that Borg is the best backup software for mid/large-sized personal projects.

Backend as a Service

Note on sizes: a lot of those might be inaccurate as there might be many microservices required aside from the core release/docker image. I haven't tested these recently so I'm not sure
