Is... This any different than the last like 5 years of tf2?
I've tried to return to tf2 maybe 4 times in the last 5 years and this was my exact experience each time.
It sucks and needs to change, but what triggered the community to act now?
I have one more thought for you:
If downtime is your concern, you could always use a mixed approach. Run a daily backup system like I described, somewhat haphazard with everything still running. Then once a month at 4am or whatever, perform a more comprehensive backup, looping through each docker project and shutting them down before running the backup and bringing it all online again.
I setup borg around 4 months ago using option 1. I've messed around with it a bit, restoring a few backups, and haven't run into any issues with corrupt/broken databases.
I just used the example script provided by borg, but modified it to include my docker data, and write info to a log file instead of the console.
Daily at midnight, a new backup of around 427gb of data is taken. At the moment that takes 2-15min to complete, depending on how much data has changed since yesterday; though the initial backup was closer to 45min. Then old backups are trimmed; Backups <24hr old are kept, along with 7 dailys, 3 weeklys, and 6 monthlys. Anything outside that scope gets deleted.
With the compression and de-duplication process borg does; the 15 backups I have so far (5.75tb of data) currently take up 255.74gb of space. 10/10 would recommend on that aspect alone.
/edit, one note: I'm not backing up Docker volumes directly, though you could just fine. Anything I want backed up lives in a regular folder that's then bind mounted to a docker container. (including things like paperless-ngxs databases)
It's funny: I haven't paid for any streaming/cable/media service in 10+ years; instead choosing to sail the seas, hord media, and host my own streaming service using tools like Emby/Plex/Jellyfin.
Spotify was the one and only service I had been considering, mainly because managing music files is still a PITA; but I keep running into articles like this one and renewing my will to fly the Jolly Rodger.
Lmao at the number of MAGA simps in that comment section.

I doubt he had any hand in that statement.
Fun fact: until recently, most airport scanners literally couldn't differentiate between water and many common explosives. Hence the scrutiny of water based products/possessions.
