I use Restic Backup to backup to a supported object storage and now setting up another provider (or VPS which will be slightly tricky) via Borg Backup (for the same data). The most important of that (~1GB) gets backed up to Tarsnap too. And once copy gets backed up to my local hard disk.
Once a while if I have to share any photos with some friends I send them an iCloud link and then remove the photos once they have either downloaded or seen.
I know there's a risk of losing the data if I forget/misplace the key(s) and my hard disk dies (at the same time) but then I could forget my Google credentials too, or worse still (with a higher probability) I could get locked out of my Google A/c and I don't know any Googler, neither do I have too many Twitter followers.
It's been worth it and once setup it's been running smoothly for over a year (across 2 laptop changes/data migration).
