I remember before, you could use crashplan to easily backup to a computer at a friend's house and vice versa. Anyone know any similar tools? The biggest requirement would be that it's easy enough to use that someone who doesn't know what "self hosting" is can do it.
Syncthing.

But keeping the service live at all times isn’t really a backup.
As someone who tried syncthing with their non-self hosting friends, let me tell you, that edit folder option is terrifying for the general public lol
I guess you can do "local"backups then syncthing them over, but thats a bit contrived
BitTorrent sync.
