Veeam community for me. Cross backup locally between my 2 servers at home, and then a copy job to an offsite NAS.
Have had to restorations before, and never had any issues.

Wow. My homeserver drives generally last me 5-8 years before I replace them. Can't imagine getting nag dialogs after 3...
With mirrored storage spaces / raid10, who really cares if a single drive dies?
So looking at Mastodon as an example, everyone went on the main site and it wreaked havoc for a while, especially as the sites increased in size.
Might make sense to find a smaller site or roll our own.
It's "self-hosted" after all, I would suspect our use-cases and skill-set are probably better served running our own. Or setting up a topic at one of the smaller-tech focused sites.
Well shoot. Im sure it'll be a glitchy mess, but dang thats gonna be fun.
As a No Mans Sky preorder and day 1 player [to this day], it can't be that bad.
Now I just want more info on that watch
Note: I use hyperV, so my views here may not be applicable for all.
But, get a server-grade motherboard from the start. Supermicro is cheap used.
Having IPMI / out of band management is incredibly helpful to troubleshoot issues.
Stability seems to be a lot better.
Drivers are more reliable on WinServer.
