If I have a home server connected to Proton Drive for example, would that be sufficient to back up my data?

Possibly linux

It isn’t cost effective. Go for Back blaze or some other backup service

Thanks - I’m also trying to replace google drive and eventually OneDrive so that I can easily access files across multiple devices (Linux, Win, Android) and sync the files. Proton seems like a good alternative until I have a home server set up, which will likely take me a year or two. I’m starting from zero knowledge and have very little free time to do it lol
