I agree. Backup and restore must be easy.
An important point for SeedVault backup:
“Backup my data” (experimental)
didn’t work for me. (At least not when restoring the backup to another device. I didn’t try the same device.)
Always back up your data in a different way and not with SeedVault.
My experience of backing up SeedVault in Nextcloud was not very good either. Aborts again and again …
Backups to USB are not practical for me. Usually don’t do that often enough. It has to be done automatically.
Therefore, I use the following backup strategy:
- SeedVault backup to your own device first. (I would estimate a maximum of 10 gigabytes for this.)
- This folder is then automatically synchronized with the data either to a cloud or to your own computer.
