What is the best way to back up as much as possible of Debian 12 on my laptop to a server that has SSH available? I am currently backing up my users /home/<homedir> folder, but I would like to be able to nuke and restore the system from a backup.

I have ventoy on an external drive if that helps any.

P.S. I would like to be able to do incremental backups too.

    Installing specific things both from the repo and from elsewhere (Minecraft), Minor UI tweaks - move the panel to the left side (wide monitor), Konsole settings for colors, font(dotted zero), font size (bigger), 80x25 window. Probably others but that’s all I remember for now.

      User settings are stored in the home directory, so you already have them backed up with rsync. If you didn’t omit dotfiles, of course.
