How long do you keep your backups? (lemmy.zip)

Right now I'm creating a nightly restic snapshot of my server on borgbase and on some spare drives, and keeping the snapshots forever. There's a ton of daily churn in my data though, between databases and logs and other files that don't constitute 'real data' but might be needed to restore the app.

My local backup drives still have room (it's my main pool with all bluray backups that's begging for more space), but borgbase is approaching the point where I'll have to bump to a higher tier or pay per gb. Looking at my usage chart every day adds at a minimum 50mb so something has to change.
