My Bitwarden renewal came through this morning. It’s still $10 per year. I was about to cancel, but I thought what the heck at $10, I’ll keep it on out of principle and to show support.
I also have a tutanota encrypted email, which costs little more than pocket change over the year. I hardly use it, but it’s there.
I wondered then, if this community had any little gems to share - services they pay for that are let’s say under $30 annually. I think we can exclude VPS, since lots of people will probably have them already.
I’m going to cross post at /r/opensource too.
Do you encrypt the backups? I’m interested in learning more about this process.
If you are sending any of your data from your home lab to an outside server that you personally do not control then yes, you should ALWAYS encrypt the backups (unless it’s crap you don’t care about like your tax returns, credit card details, passwords, etc.)
How do you I encrypt the files before copying them to a remote server/storage?
Some backup services have an option for it, like Duplicati. Rclone also has it but requires a lil setup I think.
Restic is great for that, deduplication and snapshots as well
Good backup software will have this ability built in - such as duplicati for instance.
