You probably don’t generate more than 4 megabits of backup-worthy data on average every second
Exactly
this is ~10GB every 6 hours (which is probably a reasonable amount of time to run a backup while not interfering with active Internet use).
Basically the only backup-worthy content I generate is casual photos and videos, and these are nowhere near that size (Immich database backups also take up a bit but I could certainly be smarter about how I handle these backups).
