At that pricing, if you need to backup less than 25GB compressed data, Hetzner is more expensive than the "ripoff".

  Good thinking there pal, but you are missing the point. If I wanted to store 25GB i could probably find a spot that'd do it for free (Mega, Google Drive etc)

    If you need free space to store something this is so not for you buddy... Just go register 10 google accounts to spread your stuff around and you never need to pay for storage;) some people like to be a customer not a product

      my point it is overpriced no matter how you look at it

        Yes, it's seriously overpriced and storage costs hasn't decreased on Tarsnap for ages. That is the reason I am currently migrating off Tarsnap after using it for over ten years.

        No, it's overpriced if you compare it to worse solutions which is how the market is supposed to work

          So I should pay 125€/mo(plus transfer fees) instead of 6€/mo for my 500GB?
          • throwaway290 3y ago
            No. I already said it's probably not for you. If you need lowest price per GB and don't care about anything else including your time or customer support then nothing beats a bunch of google accs with free drive tier. No price is better than zero But for me tarsnap is convenient as extra offsite backup for valuable stuff. Price per GB is not the only factor and different people have different priorities.
