borg backup with rsync.net
Borg does de-duplication and compression, I've used it for multiple things like backing up minecraft servers and it can reduce the final backup size by a lot (like 1-2 TBs to a hundred of GB, though that was with content that was highly compressible and didn't change much over-time so the deduplication did a lot too).
There is also borgbase.com which looks a bit better and focuses only on borg repositories instead of also being compatible with just about any usual tools (eg rsync, rclone etc)
Would you trust rsync.net to be around for a long time? They're doing a $540 lifetime 1TB offer which is interesting as I'm luckily in a position to do but would take 6 years plus to "pay off".
they already have been around for a long time, i used them for about 8 years (if i remember correctly), before switching to borgbase last years because of the notifications they can send you when no backup has happened for a specific time, which rsync.net can't 😐
