Solutions for backups (lemmy.ml)

I am currently attempting to degoogle and at the same time move to an entirely self hosted ecosystem.

I've set up a NAS and have syncthing to deal with the dropbox/gdrive type things and have backup on a raid disk. What I am looking for now is a backup solution that can backup to my nas and in the future a remote device - probably to another nas at a family member's hous

Can anyone recommend a backup solution for this?

Technically I am not looking to degoogle as I don't gave a Google solution for this- but I guess I'm looking for a self hosted alternative to GCP backup.

Syncthing is excellent for phone sync.
What I did was have it running on a system in the network of the nas, mount the nas on that system, and place the backups folder in the nas.

If you have a system that reliably runs, or can get syncthing running on the nas, I recommend doing that.
Synology has docker iirc, there aught to be a syncthing container.
Else, slapping a pi zero into the nas' network should do the trick and be fully independent of what the nas is.

Yeah I've already got syncthing running on a pi which syncs to the nas.
