Anyone have thoughts about backblaze?

I pushed some data to it. Pretty happy with their default tool for uploading from a linux box.

Only issue is I picked the wrong region and no way to flip it without a new account which is a bit annoying.

0.005 cents is pretty decent for a GB/month.

    I use B2 in combination with gocryptfs and rclone. Works seamlessly, and I can restore backups to either Windows or Linux.

    Been a customer for a couple years now and very happy with it.

    I’ve been using them as backup storage for a while (their B2 offering to be exact) and it’s been working fine for me.
    Really can’t complain about the price, most other providers are more expensive or have specific conditions attached.

    I use them for an online copy of my backup. They’re very cheap and I’ve got nothing bad to say about them. I use rclone to sync a local borgbackup repo to it, which gives me a couple copies for redundancy.

    I like them - fast enough and a good price, especially if you have public data you’re happy to put behind Cloudflare for free egress.

    Edit: Aaaand this morning I get an email saying prices are going up by 20% in October 🤦‍♂️
