Since I got my docker environment setup and functional, I'm now thinking about backups. I'd like do a cloud backup of my docker volumes at the very least, if not the images and/or the config files. Any advice on cloud providers?

Volume backups would be about 20-30 GB in total.

These are two I found via a quick search: One drive is $99.99 a year for 1 TB. Jottacloud is $69.99 a year for 1 TB

Dropbox is out as it's too expensive. I like the price of Jottacloud but I've never used it before.

How do you handle backups? Would cloud be a waste?

I use my trusty orange Verbatim 3.5" diskette that I've used daily since 1993. I backup the important files on it: autoexec.bat, config.sys, win.ini, system.ini and of course command.com. It gives me trouble from time to time so I just stick it to the fridge for an hour or so with the big magnet I recovered from my last hard drive that failed which is why I do daily backups now.
