My goal is to to fully ditch Google Photos for Immich. I have about ~3TB of photos and videos. Looking for a super simple way of backing up the library to cloud storage in case of a drive failure without spending a ton.

Ideally, this will require nothing on my part besides copying files into a given folder. And ideally the storage will be encrypted and have basic privacy assurances.

Also if it matters my home server is running Debian. But I’d prefer something that runs in docker so I can more easily check on it remotely.

    There’s a plan where you pay some tiny amount per gb. Thats the one to use.

      It’s $6/tb which isn’t bad but for my 3tbs is still more than $100/yr.

        Yes you just taught me I’m paying more than I needed to using their B2 directly lol but I gave a few different backup buckets configured and I don’t mind paying a little extra for flexibility, vs paying for each machine I want data backed up on.

        I’d be surprised if you find cheaper, but if you do, please report back.

        Fwiw, BB have been super reliable for me over that past few years I’ve used them.
