    Good news, you can use someone else’s. Backblaze is pretty cheap. It adds up to about $5USD per Terrabyte, and it’s pro-rated. So 500GB is $2.50,etc.

    Hetzner recently introduced some S3 compatible object storage, too.

    Object Storage and “S3” are just ways to refer to a certain type of system. To interact with it, you just need tools that have S3 support built in.

    Restic is fantastic. If you’d like some help coming up with the command to use, let me know.

    Pretty much every popular backup solution supports S3 type storage.

    Anyway, backups are good.
