I would like to use a cloud backup service on my home server. I am a complete beginner. I purchased a subscription for Proton Drive, but it looks like that just won’t work. Is there a secure cloud backup that works well on Linux? Bonus points if there’s a way to use proton drive. Extra bonus points, if I can set it up for automatic backups through a GUI.
Any cloud is a secure backup on Linux if you use rclone crypt :)
It works with Google Drive, Dropbox, One Drive, and countless others to create an encrypted cloud storage, where the cloud provider can never view your file contents.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

I’ve loved using Backblaze B2 buckets. Been using them for years and it’s very reasonable. Many different backup titles can use them.

Run a transparent encryption program and buy a Google drive subscription of 2TB for a year for $100.
I use rsync.net, it’s not as cheap as some, but I like the simplicity of storage I can access with rsync, rclone, sshfs etc.
You can run some commands remotely too, so I used rclone to copy my OneDrive files directly from the cloud files to rsync.net. Not through my PC.
R2 has no ingress or egress fees
