That is incredibly helpful information, thank you for taking the time to write that up.
240-260GB is a very small amount of data compared to what I backup, my photos and videos are around 150GB, I’ve got a few archives of family documents / data, an offline copy of my git repos, 35GB of email, any 3D models and related data I’m working on, a collection of specialised software that isn’t easily re-downloadable, daily snapshots of anything I’m working on (quite high churn but important), a couple of SQLite databases from a few apps I use, my collection of purchased ebooks and audiobooks and a few other things from my home server.
Currently I’m using both Backblaze Backup on one of my laptops and Borgbase which I was intending to migrate to once I was happy, it’s OK but I’d probably just be better doing something like you say with a VPS / cloud server somewhere near me in Australia/NZ, have had some performance issues with their hosting / routing and while borg itself has been reliable it’s a pain when you want to quickly browse through your backups or do an ad-hoc cleanup.
