What is rclone
It is a program that copies files to cloud storage. Very easy. You run rclone config, follow steps, then rclone sync /your/files remote:bucket. Done.

I lost a site in 2022 because my "backup" was just cpanel full backup and the host went under before I could download it. The backup existed but I had no access. Now I use rclone to Backblaze B2 every night. $0.005/GB.

I have 47 VPS and I back them all up to each other in a mesh. If any three die I still have 44. This is probably stupid but it has worked so far.

Your backup bill is higher than my rent.

Mesh backup is not stupid, it is just not a backup. It is redundancy. Different thing. Backup means you can get a file from Tuesday even if you deleted it Wednesday. Mesh sync will delete it everywhere.

Only if you use sync and not snapshot. I do zfs snapshots on all nodes and replicate those. The mesh keeps the snapshots, not just current state.

How much does Wasabi cost for 500GB? I am confused by their pricing.

$6.99/month minimum, covers up to 1TB. So 500GB or 1TB same price. 90-day minimum storage charge means if you delete after 30 days you still pay for 90. Good for real backups, bad for temp files.

Same here. Wasabi for two years now.
