while technology wise (speed, only restore needs password) i would prefer

  rdedup
which is an impressive piece of software but unfortunately without file iterator... :-)

Itunes can also sync over Wifi[1] or You can use Nextcloud[2]. You can backup your photos to your PC/Mac and then upload them to a cloud service. I use duplicati[3], it automatically encrypts and compress your files and uploads them to the cloud service of your choosing. I use Backblaze B2 for the cloud service($0.005/GB)[4].

Aha!

This looks interesting.

Just to confirm, you mean this Duplicati? (https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati)

Also, it says it's a client for backups which support cloud and local servers.

On their page it says it supports:

"Amazon S3, OneDrive, Google Drive, Rackspace Cloud Files, HubiC, Backblaze (B2), Amazon Cloud Drive (AmzCD), Swift / OpenStack, WebDAV, SSH (SFTP), FTP, and more!"

Only local options I see are SFTP/FTP. Do you know of other supported ones? I can't seem to find reference to other local solutions, so if you have more info that would be great!

I mean, setting up an FTP server is pretty simple and with such a client most of the hassle of actually backing up would be solved apparently, but are there any other options for local servers that you know of (just for comparison sake)?

Any input is appreciated. Thanks!

Been using this for a while now, seems to work great https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati

The features I like is * Encrypted cloud backup * Blockbased backup (only backup changes) * Restore files from a certain day

Cloud + https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati Encrypts and compresses before sending data to the cloud and lets me restore files from specific days if needed.

I might be a bit late to the party with this one but I just found https://github.com/duplicati/duplicati and it seems to be a very nice solution for encrypted cloud backups.

There's also https://github.com/ncw/rclone if you would rather do it more like rsync.

Duplicati is a backup client (with GUI) that securely stores encrypted, incremental, compressed backups on cloud storage services and remote file servers. It works with Amazon S3, Windows Live SkyDrive, Google Drive, Rackspace Cloud Files or WebDAV, SSH, FTP (and many more). Built-in AES-256 encryption and backups can be signed using GNU Privacy Guard.
