One of the hardest things about migrating to Linux has been finding a simple yet effective backup solution.

For the longest time, I've been relying on RAID and periodic rsync to keep me safe, which isn't the most ideal setup.

Recently however, I discovered Pika Backup, which has to be the most simple solution for backing up data on linux that I've found.

A big thank you to the maintainers of this package, they've done an exceptional job.
