Does the append-only mode you have in borgbase fix the issues of the append-only mode in Borg itself? https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/en/stable/usage/notes.html... Because the way it works in Borg isn't really workable in practice, it only seems to be good to check a box.

We use the same public version of Borg, so those limitations apply. It’s still quite workable. Just prune from a different machine or once a year when the repo gets too large.
We may move to reject destructive commands from append-only repos in the future, but this will break existing workflows. Discussion on this here: https://feedback.borgbase.com/posts/28/reject-delete-and-pru...
