I use Infomaniak. Not self hosted but mostly just works and offers a reasonable amount of storage plus integrations for not a lot of money.
Then I have many of my self hosted solutions connect to it.

It never left, but common folks decreased reliance on it substantially. When Netflix was popular my house of IT people slowed and almost stopped pirating video content entirely, there was no reason. After Netflix turned shit and half a dozen services sprung up, we cancelled Netflix and now pirate absolutely everything video. There was a slight drop while crunchyroll was good, but it becasue shit enough apparently that those in my family using it returned to pirating.

Music didn’t shitify as much though, I feel it’s improved now. I have Tidal because it’s cheap and easy to find new music. I seldom find music that I can’t listen to on Tidal.

Elegedly.

Set it up with NetBird or Tailscale so it isn’t externally accessible.

Yeah, I use Tidal for recommendations, then download so they don’t rug-pull me.

Though it does change the landscape and introduce additional computation for those scraping.

If they make a mistake and don’t account for all the ways the model can be poisoned they risk significant capital training only to identify an issue causing degraded results.

Imagine if everyone did this differently on many websites. It would cause a re-evaluation of scraping costs.

I am using this.

Immich, kDrive photo backup as well, then sync the entire Immich folder to kDrive separately. kDrive is easy to hook into TrueNAS so I use the built-in data protection to do the backup (rclone under the hood I think).

kDrive seems to have everything meaningful to me Backblaze does and SwissBackup seemed like useless garbage the three times I tried to use it.

Since Backblaze on their client app just arbitrarily removes file extensions and such to prevent them backing up and some other issue more recently. Also they are American.
