Just setup Duplicati on my laptop and got it connected to Backblaze B2. Very easily done, looks like it will be my new backup method for the friends and family that have earned service from me. Also, B2 is super cheap compared to standard tiers from the other big cloud providers. It's just a tinny bit more expensive than glacier, but without the wait for days if you need to restore.
Are you using Duplicati 2.0 or 1.3.4?
2.0.2.1

@travisdh1 Be interested to know how well this works with webdav, and with how much data?
I don't think I'll have more than 8TB total between 5 computers. So it may end up being free, but I really don't mind keeping backups even longer if I can. It's not like storage space when talking GB is much money at all, unlike @stacksofplates and almost 2TB.

The big problem for me with the home version of BackBlaze is you can't install it on a Linux based system. Obviously I'm not their target market as I have no Windows or Mac systems at home, which is why I will probably just pay CrashPlan the extra money.

Same for me, and B2 is more expensive than Backblaze for home.

I like Crashplan and it works well enough that I'm just going to suck it up and pay the $10 a month for the "business" edition since it works with Linux and all that jazz.
I will likely use Unison to get all my devices into a central folder on the computer that runs my crashplan backups, and then I don't have to worry about it any more.
