#RaspberryPi owners, how do you back up your #RPi?
I don’t have an extra hard drive, so I need to back up to #GoogleDrive. I’ve installed #Rclone and tried creating a #BASH script, but I’m struggling with it.
If you’ve set up something similar or have recommendations for an efficient backup workflow, I’d love to hear them! Bonus points if you know any good courses or resources to improve my scripting skills.
