I dropped duplicati after its database got corrupted irreversibly. Also, recoveries were always very long.

I now use restic and I'm very happy. I find it to be very resilient. No more database, only indexes and data packs, which can be repaired.



Same. Database corruption hit me after ~1.5 years and I could never figure out what the cause was or how to fix it. Which is a shame, because Duplicati looks like a great open source project with a lot of dev time and effort invested into it. But when it comes to backup software, your core functionality better work reliably, and Duplicati just isn't there. I since switched to Duplicacy and couldn't be happier.
