Ok to delete owncloud-backup directories

I have own cloud backup directories dating back to 2021. Can I just remove these older directories?

drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep 2 17:49 2024-09-02-17:48:35
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 5 2023 2023-09-05-09:29:34
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Sep 4 2023 2023-09-04-10:31:39
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Sep 4 2023 2023-09-04-10:20:04
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Jul 24 2022 2022-07-24-09:35:17
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Oct 24 2021 2021-10-24-11:48:57

Thanks for any guidance on these!

You didn’t show the path of the files you’re listing, so I’ll assume you’ve listed the files in /home/user-data/owncloud-backup/. If that’s true, then yes, you can delete them. I keep the last one around, because I don’t know under what circumstance it could be needed, but for sure you can delete all the rest. These backup directories also consume a lot of space.
