Cloud backup
The use-case of this solution is very similar to Syncthing, but the goal here is to utilize cloud storage (OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) to back up your data. The important difference is that this is upload only - you can't use this solution to synchronize data between different devices. It is for continously copying your data to the cloud, so in case of a hardware failure/loss, you can restore your previous Batocera installation with ease.
This solution uses rclone, which is shipped with Batocera and Batocera's services feature. Because of the latter, it requires v40.
You can find a detailed description of how this works and setup instructions for it in this repository.
