As the title says, i recently printed a nice case for my RPi3 and HDD that intend to run as an offsite backup machine.

Looking for recommendations on what backup service to run. I want to backup my Nextcloud and a “changes only” backup/cloning solution would be optimal but i have yet to find one.

Rsync paired with ZFS is sufficient for a backup server imo. Configure ZFS to create daily snapshot and now you have versioned backup system. It’s basically what rsync.net sells to their customers.
