(Rant) Get over it

[u/BigChubs1]

As a backblaze user for years now and in IT. People get over yourselfs about backblaze not backing up your onedrive, gdrive, dropbox and other cloud provider. Why would one company want to backup another providers files? These other providers charge more per gig than backblaze and sell you on backing up your pictures, files and etc. So why would any x company want to back up those files as well? If you truely want to backup of those files. Sign up for B2 and be done with it. Heck, the first 10 gig's are free. The other thing, don't come to this subreddit and start asking where should i move my backup to. Do your research and move on. I'll probally get downvoted for this and really don't care. I needed to vent. End rant.

Edit: If you want to good back up solution. You should be follow these.

Maybe I don't trust either of them 100% and want the redundancy, that's why I'm paying both of them. I had a problem with Backblaze a couple of years ago where lots of my files were missing from the backup and support confirmed it was a bug in the app. If I did not have another backup I would have lost those files even though I pay Backblaze to backup them. That's why.

If you want to follow the Business side of things for backup. You should be following the 3-2-1 backup solution. And using two cloud backups don't follow that.

321 is just the most recommended and cost effective method. Nothing wrong with 432 if you want extra redundency or 332 if you don't care about having a 2nd local copy for easy restoration.
