One week ago. I backed up my "everything folder". Programs and the rest can be deleted, I have fast internet and I will reinstall them without problems

Subtle desktop thread?
>>55109048
look what you did, you little jerk
despite having ~4TB of storage taken up, I don't think I would be very fussed if I happened to lose it all
Theres nothing particularly important to me that I can think of off the top of my head
i keep all my important shit (there isnt much maybe a few GB) in m$ cloud
>>55109165
Then why do you hoard all that crap? Throw it away, you'll feel better.
>>55109219
The majority is games, pictures, movies
I never delete movies, I keep them for my plex media server
every so often I do go back and delete and uninstall things
I'm not in any urgent need of space any time soon anyway though
I just recently managed to sort out my SSD from being 4gb free to ~30gb free now
>>55108975
never, I change OS too often for that.

I'm waiting on my external hdd delivery, got 20gb worth of furry/pokemon/vanilla/3dpd/misc porn stored and ain't gonna lose it, also 80gb of family pictures over the past decade.
Secret to backup happiness.
Use btrfs to create multiple sub-volumes to separate important/unimportant content that can be instantly snapshotted at regular intervals and diff'd for small incremental backups.
The separations I have are:
Backed up:
- System configuration (important for recovering if the system dies, includes state of installed packages)
- User (.configs, build scripts, various shell scripts, keys, passwords, e-mails, small documents, etc.)
- Projects (repos / source code stuff I work on and can't afford to lose)
- "Working" directory (temporary dump-folders for whatever random things I'm working on, sometimes massive, and old backups dropped earlier)
- Media (I don't make many pictures but losing any of it would be permanent, mostly screenshots)
Not backed up:
- System (/)
- Deployment testing (/srv)
- Cache / Local settings / logs / histories (.local, .cache)
- Archives (gigabytes of potentially huge files I have kept around for various reasons that will never change, not backed up automatically, but kept copied in various places)
- Third-party software (cloned git repos)
- Third-party media (animes and porn and stuff...)
- Downloads (basically third-party shit I haven't organized properly yet, and never will)
- Build directories (matches up to third-party software or self-made projects)
Simple as snapshotting the important stuff, backing up to a local drive, encrypting and pushing off to a couple of remotes.
I aim to put anything that rapidly changes outside of my backups to stop them being overrun with browser/thumbnail caches and bash history, as well keeping anything I can get back online out of my backups.

thats what I thought about my truecrypt executables... until one day...

Kill yourself fucking retarded tripfaggot
>>55111922
kevin we're all so sick of you and your fucking happy wheels

>>55111969
I honestly can't wait for rope day
No time for love, backup thread.
Once every two weeks or something I make a backup.
>>55108975
i dont back it up because i dont have the storage for it yet also because im not a retard and i dont fuck up my system
10 minutes ago :^)
yesterday
important shit is backed up properly, on two hard drives, a DVD-R and a flash drive. bulk stuff like videos I just keep in a RAID6 array with regular snapshots and call it good enough, despite that not being a real backup.
>>55111909
Teach me oh master!
This one right here? Never
All I do on this is shitpost my dank memes and SSH into other machines
>>55108975
I don't save my data in local hard drive
>>55108975
never back it up, don't have anything massively important plus theres never been a moment where i should of backed it up
>>55108975
Don't remember
