Ever since I scaled back Time Machine to only back up key folders to an SD card, it’s been working great.

@mjtsai Yeah, I just don't see the value of backing up *everything*. If you want a complete restore, a full clone is far superior.

@stormchild Exactly. Would be nice to be able to tell Time Machine what *to* back up, rather than giving it a massive exclude list. -
@mjtsai Agreed. Backblaze is similarly awkward to configure (include is per-volume; must exclude whatever you don't want). -
@stormchild It would be a lot easier if you could resize the Time Machine exclude list view, but it’s part of the System Preferences window… - View other replies

@mjtsai You can…it just doesn't look like it. Try dragging any edge. -
@stormchild Ah, yes, drag the invisible grow box to make the sheet way larger than its parent window. Odd, but at least it works. -
@mjtsai Intuitive, right? (At least it shows the right pointer now; at one point there was no visual cue at all.)
