I do use tarsnap and like it but in the last years I've found another similar approach that I do prefer. What I do is create a local backup using borg. So I do get deduplication, compression and encryption. Once I update my borg archive (a few megabytes per day) I sync it to a cloud storage provider, like GCS, S3 or backblaze. The reason I prefer it, is that I have a copy of my backups locally, which is convenient if I ever need them. Also borg is more friendly when it comes to managing old archives.
