I backup locally to my NAS with Synologys Drive software, the NAS does a 10 day rolling snapshot of the backup folder. First I then had Hyper Backup set up to do a versioned backup from the NAS to a cloud provider.
But I got scared of the thought that a corruption would propagate through the whole backup chain. So now I do an additional backup for the most important stuff directly from my PC with restic + resticprofile to a Hetzner storage box. I know they do not give any promises about data reliability, but I think chances of the local and remote backup breaking at the same time are pretty slim.
Restic is sending a fail/done ping to an uptime-kuma instance I host myself to monitor the backup which then notifies me with ntfy if backups fail or are missed for a couple of days.
