(#13857996)
I chose to replace duplicity with borg backup because I needed to backup a headless server and I found borg pruning to be much simpler to script than duplicity.
Now, if I just had laptops to backup I would have chose deja-dup over borg because I could have configured it in seconds.
A nice project would be to code a TUI front-end to borg init/create/prune/check commands that is as quick to setup as deja-dup and automatically adds systemd units or cron jobs to the system, with an alert triggered when something fails.
Yes I tried backupninja with borg but encountered some problems with it.
`borg prune -v --list $REPOSITORY --prefix '{hostname}-' --keep-daily=7 --keep-weekly=4 --keep-monthly=6`
