I really should lmao

no :3

Rarely.

Rarely;

the last one I did ended up being bootable and it took me a solid minute to figure out what happened when I booted into it

Every day

very rarely

yes

when I remember to do so 🥴

nah >:3

every time I reinstall (not enough but good enough)

every 6 hours 🔥

not as frequently as i should

my instance db is backed up nightly and that's about it really. i had A Proper Backup Scheme once but it kinda got messed up with my desktop dying.

no absolutely not . why on earth would i have the same data twice ? waste of storage space if you ask me .

Daily snapshot of my home directory to an external drive... Postgres DB gets dumped nightly for Mastodon, etc etc.
Not perfect but good enough.
