Hey, you probably know about restic and borg for backups. They are pretty mature and very commonly used.
Rustic is a fully compatible reimplementation of restic in Rust and they do seem to have implemented a few improvements over restic. The developer even used to be a contributor on restic.
Is anyone here using it already? It looks super promising but I’d love to hear your opinion!
Imagine a world where all these rust devs would write new software instead of manically reimplementing existing software in rust…
Imagine a world where we’re all using 30 year old software because it “still kinda works”.
restic is 8 years old though
And? I didn’t mention restic, nor did the person I was replying to. I was under the impression we were both talking about software being rewritten in Rust in general.
