I have a home server that I’m using and hosting files on it. I’m worried about it breaking and loosing access to the files. So what method do you use to backup everything?

Restic to b2. Works great. I've also used duplicati in the past to b2 as well.

Same setup here. I've got a really basic script running nightly from cron. B2 is cheap as, and having an encrypted backup that's versioned is great for piece of mind.

At one point I was away from home and my (little rpi) server wasn't accessible, but with the restic repo up on B2 I was able to easily find a file I urgently needed remotely. It's awesome.
