    I plug in an external drive every so often and drag and drop my home dir into it like it’s 1997. I’m not running a data center here. The boomer method is good enough.

      yeah about the same, old coot here, I plug a USB3-SSD (encrypted with LUKS) and rsync from internal HD to this external HD. That’s it.
