"Rclone simply copies data. If you `sync` `~/Documents` to your remote it will keep an exact copy." ... "This is a simple backup since you only have one version. Anything deleted, the next time it syncs, gets deleted." This is correct. It is widely advised to not consider a "sync" like this a proper backup. However, for what it's worth, rsync.net does support rclone[1] and because of the ZFS snapshots that are created and maintained[2] in your account, you can just do a dumb sync because the retention is handled by the snapshots. I am not sure if rclone is really the right tool for plain old cloud backups - I think rclone distinguishes itself for the ability to transfer data between cloud providers.[3] [1] https://rsync.net/products/rclone.html [2] ZFS snapshots reside in the .zfs/snapshot directory inside your rsync.net account. [3] ssh user@rsync.net rclone file/in/rsync/net/account s3:/some/bucket |
