I’m maxed out on ICloud from Apple.
2TB.
What are people using as a cloud service?

I use Carbonite, but as an archive, not active storage.

You can purchase more ICloud space on Apple.

Backblaze - easy to use and inexpensive with unlimited storage.

I agree been using them for ages. Decent pricing and covers unlimited drives. As with any cloud product initial upload takes awhile depending on internet speed and amount of data to upload

Yep! Backblaze. New user. Uploading 5 TB as we speak. Takes a long time to upload - a VERY long time, but it's all done in the background and can be essentially ignored. Needs to be connected at least once a month to sync further updates after that. If you decide to delete some files, Backblaze will do so too within thirty days of your deletion.

I don't use cloud storage for anything but a backup. I prefer local hard drives.

I do it all, Bob. 3 High capacity external hard drives and backblaze (in case of unforeseen catastrophe). At this low cost for unlimited storage, I see no reason why not to do so.

Same for me
Storage and backup locally to HDD.

For online backup I use Backblaze as mentioned by others

Yep, 3 copies of your data: working or primary storage, a backup, and an off-site disaster recovery copy.
