How would or do you backup your home server? I don’t have enough physical storage (for now) at home to store some backups, so I want to upload it to the cloud. Of course I want the backup to be encrypted, but I don’t want to enter the password every time by server does a backup. I am currently using borg on my PC and do it manually. How do I create a encrypted backup without entering the key manually? Do I hardcode it somewhere? Don’t really like that. I am also fine with trying other backup software.

    I use a cryptomator mount and sync that to whichever cloud i want, but the un/mounting is manual.
    If you need full disk encryption look at ZFS and snapshots.
    Do you need to backup everything on the disk?
