Ask HN: Open-source Windows 11 backup solutions
There's also Arq Backup which can backup to OneDrive so if you have less than 1TB to backup you might not need to pay anything.

Back Up Storage options
I use Arq Premium backup services They supply the backup software and the cloud storage

ThinMachine – A $25 Thin Client macOS Time Machine Appliance
People who want something similar may want to look at Arq [1]. Similar to restic, it provides incremental encrypted backups to most cloud providers (or a machine with SSH). But it is a Mac app, making it easy to configure and maintain. I never had issues with data corruption so far.
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated with them, just a happy user for 9 years.

What am I looking for!?
Sending it to the NAS should create a copy automatically to BOTH an online server (I was thinking dropbox, but the space might be too limited. Maybe AWS? I've used https://www.arqbackup.com/ on my computer before so something similar would be great) and a second drive (so I guess I'm looking at a 2-drive NAS that I can setup as master-slave).

Guys I’m scared 😭 my life is on my computer and I don’t know how to fix it
For actual off-site backups, using something like https://www.backblaze.com or use https://www.arqbackup.com and your own choice cloud storage provider.

Anyone use Veeam Backup for Mac?
Curious too. On the Mac side, I feel like I mostly hear about Backblaze for cloud backups, but I do like Arq for pushing to any of the typical cloud storage options.

Have a look at Arq backup https://www.arqbackup.com/ It might meet your requirements

Is VeraCrypt 1.25.9 compatible with macOS Ventura?
Take a look at Arq Backup - not identical, but it's E2EE.

Could I backup to B2 Cloud with a similar experience as Backblaze Personal?
You could try this: https://www.arqbackup.com/ , it supports B2 I believe.

Digital clutter: Learning to let go and stop hoarding terabytes
Regarding Arq backup: if you are worried about using a proprietary (enrypted) and closed-source backup format in case the company were to go under, they have an open source command-line restore tool:
https://github.com/arqbackup/arq_restore
I've been using Arq for years, but I need to look into the "Glacier Deep Archive" format which is about 1/20th the cost of the fastest storage class.

Cleaning up my 200GB iCloud with some JavaScript
So yes, those 10TB archives may end up being 5TB if someone spent the time to really comb over, understand, make good decisions, and organize that data. But I have not yet seen anything that can scratch that surface yet, other than perhaps https://github.com/jjuliano/aifiles - but I won't use it until it's local only and has guarantees not to destroy data without explicit permission. An overlay filesystem that shows compression/deduplication with LLM capability like aifiles is probably the best option here.
However, I wouldn't imagine that most people's life data is less than 2TB even with all of this - it's mostly imposed as an artificial constraint by these companies.

Dropbox axes 16%
I imagine things like this are underway: https://github.com/jjuliano/aifiles
Honestly I think it's actually a pretty fantastic development if that's the direction. I don't use Dropbox much, nor have I used aifiles (due to sending all of your data to OpenAI) - but the idea of being able to not have to manually and tediously look over terabytes of files to completely reorganize all of your files into a better directory hierarchy, and tag each files with meaningful labels, etc sounds phenomenal.
Obviously there are some implementation details for this to be not awful - for example: 1) only local models for local data, 2) making the changes on e.g. ZFS (to allow rollback) or as some type of optional 'overlay' view to switch back and forth from the original to ai-organized, etc. and 3) having thresholds and logic for what may be considered 'duplicates' to be removed, and how to better compress data
As for the de-duplication and processing: this could be very good for dropbox in that, e.g. if a person wants to completely re-encode all of their image files or video files with AV1, the resulting data could be cut in half or more - which saves Dropbox storage space. After which, neural perceptual hashing could be done on all of the files and a threshold of similarity could do de-duplication on a perceptual basis (for example, keep the bigger size file that is 99% similar to a 2x downsized version, and re-encode it). User preference to keep things like tiff files completely intact or any other lossless encoding of their choosing could be good options as well
There's definitely a strange disparity between the computation cost for deploying a decent model to do this compared to the storage cost - but if a (perhaps even non-LLM!) small model is created to be able to plow through data at fast rates could be deployed it may make sense.
Or perhaps the type of semantic compression that LLMs do are of interest for making a new type of lossy compression algorithm of which Dropbox is interested.

Output from the language model is also being injected into a script that is then executed: https://github.com/jjuliano/aifiles/blob/ef529fd6281eaf8d373...
