I appreciate the callout of @backblaze having the 'guts' to call our API S3-compatible... but we're trying to be clear. And compatibility across cloud services is valuable for customers across the entire cloud ecosystem.

Replying to @devisridhar
BackBlaze is about 5 bucks a month. As @franklinveaux says “If you don’t have backups, you don’t own your data; you are just leasing it from fate”
