Backing up my media collection on something like rsync.net? (sh.itjust.works)

I have a couple of local copies of my media collection, but in case of my house burning down in a fire i would like to not have to rebuild my entire media collection. rsync.net offers some fairly reasonable storage prices (i guess there are many other good options as well).

Would you guys have any second thoughts on storing the entirety of your media collection on a remote server like that unencrypted?

Ok thanks i will look into B2 (is that just shorthand for backblaze or is it something in particular?)

I asked below here as well so no need to answer multiple times, but will restic encrypt when transferring or does it require that i can store the entire encrypted archive locally as well? or is that just borg?

B2 is Backblaze’a version of S3. It’s a cloud storage solution. https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing

Restic will encrypt the backup https://restic.readthedocs.io/en/latest/070_encryption.html

And it will backup directly to B2 so not intermediate storage is needed.
