Duplicati, has many cloud providers as destination. Encryption. Basic backup tools functionalities. I use Onedrive family plan which has a total of 6 TB for my backups. Other solid option is rclone , it does the same even more, but is more focused on sync than backup. Also many cloud providers supported. Both are Foss
I had constant problems with duplicati and switched to kopia with backblaze and it has been problem free, so I would tread very carefully with it. The database would work for a while and then get into a state that required a reset and would not have permitted a successful backup to be restored.
Yes i know, i had them too, and serious ones. It needs to always have an eye on it. I choose it because the large amount of cloud storage supported natively, and not have to configure and deal with rclone or even + restic to do a backup in home products like Onedrive. For me that's more noise and issues.
Backrest (restic) is what I use after constant duplicati problems. Kopia is also a good option.
Duplicati is ok with tiny backup sets, but give it multiple TB of data and it chokes and constantly has errors requiring expensive rebuilds.
