ZFS root w/ with incremental snapshots pushed to network backup that you physically disconnect when not in use.

Probably rsync, can be a pain in the ass to get a proper solution setup though.
It works best when done over a network, if lighting hits your shit its gonna kill the USB drives too so to do it proper a remote host is best.

Rsync to external drive for /home partition.
Fsarchiver to file on external drive for / partition.
Only one flaw in the above, fsarchiver does not handle sparse files well.

Manual backup via flashdrive

You can use duply as a frontend, it's like 4 lines of config and has built in GPG

I use different tools for different things.
Most of my work is code, so I back that up with git.
Private projects I do for my self and projects where I am part of a bigger group, git is really good.
Pictures I take with my phone is automatically backed up to my nextcloud server.
I also store other things on there when I don't need a good versioning control.
rsync is also a great tool, but I personally only use it when I manually need to transfer a lot of files.

Borg Backup mainly and the occasional (online) Clonezilla image just in case shit hits the fan.
