I've only just realised this is an active community (thanks Sept25 Community Highlights) and am very excited to see what you all are up to and interested in. As a brief intro to my setup: https://spsoul.blog/what-i-self-host-and-why/

The one thing I haven't quite worked out is backups. I know all about 3-2-1, but that's a lot to setup for a little free homelab like mine. All I'm interested in is having a daily or weekly backup just in case my hard drive gives out . I don't necessarily want to setup an entire RAID right now or pay another company to handle it, unless it's relatively painless. What's the simplest setup you'd recommend for a novice like me?

I'll have a look into NFS, that might be the way to do it in the short term
