What do you use to back up local files from Linux to external hard drive?
I have been using rsnapshot, but maybe there are better solutions out there?
Does anyone have an experience with btrfs and snapshots? Do you trust it?

Btrfs' snapshots aren't backups but can be used like that. I make tarballs from those snapshots and storage them outside the system.
To backup personal data I like rsync
