I did use time machine on external USB HDD and after some time it got corrupted. Happened multiple times over the years. Then I tried Time Machine using AFP and SMB on remote NAS. Those also got corrupted multiple times.

The lesson I learned was - do not use TimeMachine.

Now I have been using Vorta (UI for Borg) https://github.com/borgbase/vorta for a long time and everything is fine.

Same. I really like it. Also sending my backups to https://borgbase.com which was relatively painless to setup.
