Seems like a good way to do it.
Keep in mind Kopia has some weirdness when it comes to transferring repos between filesystem and S3, so you'd probably want to only keep one repo.

Backblaze B2 is a cheap S3 provider. Hetzner storage box is even cheaper, but it doesn't support S3 natively, so you're likely to run into issues with the kopia repo compatibility I mentioned.
So, I would need 3 different s3 buckets? One for each system?
If that’s the case, I might go the raspberry pi in a relatives house route.
Ah, no, Kopia uses a shared bucket.
