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.

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.

Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
The main disadvantage with pure Restic is that you usually have to end up writing your own shell scripts for some configuration management because Restic itself has none of that.
Fortunately there is https://github.com/creativeprojects/resticprofile to solve that problem.

Duplicity
I really like restic, and am personally happy to use it via the command line. It's very fast and efficient! However, I do wish there was better tooling / wrappers around it. For example, Pika Backup is a popular UI for Borg of which no equivalent exists for Restic. I'd love to be able to set something simple up on my partner's Macbook.
For my own purposes, I've been using a script I found on Github[0] for a while, but it only really supports Backblaze B2 AFAIK.[1]
I've been meaning to try autorestic[2] and resticprofile[3] as they are potentially more flexible than the script I'm currently using, and prestic[4] looks intriguing for my partner's use, but seems to have very few users. And the fact that there are so many competing tools makes it difficult to land on one.

Alternative to Backblaze that does encryption AND incremental backups?
You mean encrypted snapshots of files and not snapshots of encrypted files right? because the later is not really possible. You can do incremental backups with restic and backblaze b2 though. Just setup an automated profile using resticprofile.

Help me choose between borg, restic and rclone
While we're talking restic tools, have you also tried restic-profile?

There's also restic profile. I've been using autorestic but coming from borgmatic it feels much less solid.

Duplicati: Free backup software to store encrypted backups online
There’s also resticprofile which takes care of scheduling (with launchd on macOS) and maintenance tasks for restic. I especially enjoy that resticprofile can create a prom file for the backup status that I can just scoop up to my monitoring.

Why should I switch from Restic to Borg?
Restic has a very good command line tool: resticprofile which lets you write backup profiles in an easy config file, automates the scheduling of each task along with an automatic locking system (to ensure prune never happens during backups, etc), and integration with Zabbix for monitoring the status of the backups (i.e. being alerted when backups fail). Restoring files and searching for files is done via the CLI.
