I'd like some sort of a comparison with Duplicity/Déjà Dup that seems to be the default on Gnome/Cinnamon.

Different categories of app. Duplicity is geared toward backing up files to a separate machine, and this tool snapshots your filesystem on the same machine.
OK, thanks. I was confused because Time Machine is capable of backing up to a remote device.
Is that usable nowadays? Last time I checked it was hellishly slow compared to borg.
Usable enough for me. I don't mind since it's running in the background anyway.
