I already use Backblaze as it's important to have off-site backups whenever possible. However, needing to wait several weeks to download my data is not always an option. I'm a digital hoarder and by that I mean I have >30TB of data. My backup solution for most things is 3 local copies and 1 remote copy. Files I don't deem important enough to pay to store 3 times locally aren't backed up locally but still are backed up with Backblaze. Some things are easier to entrust to someone else (eg: git repos) than trying to maintain local mirrors. Also a Backblaze backup of a git repository doesn't do me much good if I want to quickly grab it (talking minutes to download from Gitlab instead of hours/days from Backblaze) so it makes more sense to use Gitlab as a remote so I can quickly grab it if I lose my local copy. All of that aside, it's still easier to maintain-and-test a remote repository than to maintain-and-test local repositories.
