I don’t particularly like the graphic interface as shown at https://demo.archivebox.io/public/. In my opinion, too much is displayed at once.
For my part, I use Wallabag to save single Internet pages. I think its graphic interface is better. But it is not perfect either.
I can’t really use NTFS because Linux can’t write to it.
This is not correct.
For example, there is the driver ntfs-3g. This allows read and write access to NTFS partitions. The disadvantage is that it uses FUSE and is therefore slower in some cases.
Since kernel 5.15, read and write access is also offered by the drivers provided by Paragon (ntfs3).

Because I personally use btrfs as file system for Linux, I use WinBtrfs under Windows.
ExtFAT would also be a possibility. However, one should be aware that the file system was originally designed only for flash memory storage such as USB sticks.
You can follow the submissions via an RSS feed.
For example, if you use the link Https://lemm.ee/feeds/u/Corr.xml?sort=New
, all your previous posts will be displayed.
Instead of lemm.ee you need to specify the instance where the user in question is registered. And instead of Corr
you have to enter the username. For example https://discuss.tchncs.de/feeds/u/fryboyter.xml?sort=New
. That would be in this case my contributions.
However, I would not use the storage boxes as the only backup. The offer has two disadvantages.
The boxes are regularly unavailable for some time due to maintenance work. But these maintenance times are announced in advance.
Hetzner does not specify what kind of RAID is used.
I therefore only use my box as an additional offsite backup and to swap out less important files.
Mainstream? Not a chance. Many people know Twitter and Facebook, but they don’t know what Lemmy or Reddit is, for example, and therefore don’t use it.
And it usually doesn’t matter if solution A is better than solution B. What becomes mainstream and what doesn’t usually depends on other things.
Yes, this is a bug. This has already been reported (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1581) and fixed (https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/pull/1661). I assume that after the release of Lemmy 0.18.1 everything will work again as it should.
The amount of data I backup offsite is significantly less than 20 TB. Therefore, my answer to your question will probably not help you.
I store my offsite backups at rsync.net and in one of Hetzners Storage Boxes. For backups in general, I use Borg.
Maybe Borg is a possibility. However, I have not yet backed up an entire system with it, but only certain files.
There is no such thing as the objectively best solution. Each tool has advantages and disadvantages. And every user has different preferences and requirements.
Personally, I am using Borg for years. And I have had to restore data several times, which has worked every time.
In addition to Borg, you can also look at Borgmatic. This wrapper extends the functionality and makes some things easier.
And if you want to use a graphical user interface, you can have a look at Vorta or Pika.
As always, such statistics should be treated with caution.
It is assumed that there are more than one billion websites worldwide. It is therefore not exactly unlikely that a Linux user will not access any of these 1.5 million websites.
Furthermore, it is quite common for Linux users to use tools such as Pi-Hole that simply block such statistics scripts. This means that these users would not be counted even if they accessed one of these 1.5 million websites. For my part, I also use computers with Linux that I don’t use to access websites. Some of these computers don’t even have access to the Internet. They are therefore not counted either.
Finally, let’s come to the most important point. Percentage values say not much if you don’t know the actual number of users behind them. Let’s assume, for example, that 3.5 per cent Linux users were detected in December and only 3 per cent in January. However, if the total number of users was higher in January, it is therefore possible that more users were detected in January.
