I've been considering paying for a European provider, mounting their service with rclone, and thus being transparent to most anything I host.

How do y'all backup your data?

    I bought an incredibly overkill tape system a few years ago and then the power supply exploded in it and I never bothered to replace it. Still, definitely worth it

      Yes, tape has very steep entry costs and requires maintenance and storage.

      Most of the time it doesn't make sense for a person to use it, but rather a corporate entity that needs to backup petabytes of data multiple times a day.
