Other popular choices include borg, duplicity, and duplicati.

After evaluating these and others mentioned in the comments, I ended up using borg with borgmatic to define homelab backups with yaml files that are version controlled in gitea and deployed using ansible.

I also use duplicity to back up my sister in laws storefront website to backblaze. I've been quite happy with both.

I'd throw in kopia[0], fast, many features and easy to use across platforms.

I have seen Kopia mentioned from time to time but never as often as borg. Does it have a good reputation?

I've been using it for years with zero problems.
