That would never happen for me, if it ain't automatic and reliable, it ain't going to happen in reality.

Looks like I am settled on Arq + Amazon Cloud Drive for backing up my Macs and PC.

What I'm going to do on the Linux side is less clear at the moment. If Arq was available on Linux I'd use that, but it isn't.

Duplicati is looking like an option on Linux, but my Ubuntu server is too out of date to run it. So I'm still working out with how to deal with that (either run Duplicati in a VM or go through the pain of upgrading a ZFS based, thankfully not root/boot, Ubuntu system).

Arq is far from perfect, but it seems to work well enough. Amazon Cloud Drive from the UK is fast enough to not be a bottleneck (in comparison to Backblaze, which seemed to be limited somewhere between the UK and the US).
