What are your experiences with btrbk? I have found it recently and noticed, the last contributon was 2 years ago. Is it still a healthy project or should one stick to other backup solutions for btrfs snapshots?

I'm not sure if my late reply is still useful, but anyway: I'm using btrbk on multiple computers / servers and am very satisfied with it! I can't speak for the health of the project though. But as long as it's working fine it doesn't need highly active development, no?

(But I do hope that it's still maintained.)

I decided to maintain my own script for incremental snapshot based btrfs backups for now.

But, btrbk seems simple enough to not need regular updates unless a dependency of it changes too much.
