    How do you handle encryption? Best provided option with client side encryption I’m aware of still leaks filenames.

      Cryptomator to encrypt the whole drive, back up the encrypted files and their file names.

      That said, I’ve lost data this way before. Use at your own risk.

      There is an option in truenas to encrypt filenames. I don’t use it, because I want to be able to restore one file if I need to.
