I am using duplicati and thinking of switching to Borg. What do you use and why?

I use btrfs snapshots and btrbk

btrfs is a great filesystem and btrbk complements it easily. Switching between snapshots is also really easy if something goes wrong and you need to restore.

Archwiki docs for btrfs: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Btrfs#Incremental_backup_to_external_drive

This is what I do. Btrfs snapshots and use send/receive with my NAS.
