For people that care about privacy and selfhost as much as possible for that reason, how do you handle offiste backup for some important data such as your private files and photos?

From what I understand it’s best to keep some offsite backup in case of floods/fire/etc, but I am curious how everyone do that, for example do you backup your files periodically to zero knowledge cloud providers like Proton/Mega/Sync/pCloud/etc

Or do you encrypt your files (which requires you to safe keep a lot of different passphrases/passwords) before backing them up to any remote storage?

(I’m asking this as I’m backing up something to b2 with rclone crypt, but damn, it is so slow or maybe my cpu is just too old)
