How do yall backup your phone? Trying to de Google as much as I can but that means I wont have the ability to sync everything again if I drop my phone in a lake.

Preferably a program that can run on linux or a NAS that auto backs up over wifi. Id be fine with cable backup too if I had to.

    My method is much more manual and involved, but fits my needs:

    I have my pictures, documents, and music folders synced automatically to a few computers via Syncthing. At the start op each month, I export my contacts, Obtainium apps, and other files to my documents. At this time, I also make backups to the cloud and make a couple copies to external hard drives. It may sound intensive, but it only takes 5 minutes a month.

    I restart / update my phone very often for various tests and projects. Whenever I need to do so, I upload these files from my computer or hard drive. Using a guide that I’ve made myself, it takes maybe ten minutes to have my phone exactly the way it was before.
