Hi all, I’m setting up several self-hosted apps and want to make sure I don’t lose data if something goes wrong. What are some reliable methods or tools to automate regular backups across different services?

Do you recommend using container snapshots, cloud sync, or specific backup software? How do you handle backup frequency and versioning without creating too much overhead?

Would love to learn about workflows that keep backups manageable but also thorough and easy to restore.

Thanks in advance!
