  Thanks! Which cloud provider do you use?

    I’ve been using S3 but I’m considering Cloudflare R2 as it might be a bit cheaper

      Really? Their pricing is even more expensive than AWS’ S3 Glacier Archive! I’d much rather use BackBlaze B2 than pay that much!

        Tbh I don’t really bother with Glacier. It is a lot more expensive than it seems when you want to restore anything.

        I generally just use intelligent tiering and it kind of balances out.

        You might think “oh well I’m probably never going to restore from here anyway”

        I am here to tell you that’s a very foolish attitude.

        If you aren’t testing your backups you might as well not have them.
