Cloud storage for encrypted backups recommendations (lemmy.zip)

Hi! I'm looking for a good cloud storage provider for my backups. I will encrypt them locally and rclone them, so integration is important. I've been looking through reddit, and every single provider has something behind their ears (closes accounts, scans files, sketchy, blah blah blah), so I'm having a bit of an analysis paralysis.

Free tier would be ideal. I don't need a lot of space, just a few GBs. Thanks :)

Check out storj. It is S3 compatible. If you upload from cli it encrypts localy and if you upload from web then it encrypts server side(you can still encrypt locally) data is stored in chunks so no one place has all you data. Old free tier was 50gb now its 25. You are paying for what you use. I use it at work for backing up time series database. I really like the ide and consept behind it.

As I remember storj is decentralized, right?

What about cost, like for 500gb, 1tb?

Thank you

Yes its decentralized. 4USD for TB /month and download 7USD/TB.

Now I can't choose When I started using b2 it was a really good option But now I'm reading and can't decide between storj and hetzner with their $4 for tb with free traffic

I hope someone with exprience with hetzner can chime in.

That's about $2/TB cheaper than Backblaze B2. Nice.

Looks like they make it up on egress costs, which aren't even bad at all for my use-case (4TB total currently).

Thanks!

For those wondering, it's www.storj.io
