Mac OS Backup User Folder

Has anyone tried backing up their entire Mac user folder, not just desktop / documents / downloads?    Hope someone can share their experience of this. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help. ...

Thanks for your help. Do you have a sync app you can recommend?

Jo G.6  Unfortunately I can't be helpful to you as when I need something similar I do it myself. 🤷

Maybe it's time to write your first script code. 🙋 There is always a first time!

 

PS: One example script, targeting just getting shared link(s), can be seen here. 😉 You can start play (and extend according your needs, of course) with it.
