Hello, currently the system allows backup only in AWS S3, so I would like to know if it is due to an exclusivity and agreement with Amazon or if they plan to provide other services, for example via FTP so that I can automate it to any other place.

It is very cumbersome to have to download it manually and upload it to external servers (I feel like I am in prehistoric times); I would like many other services, but I’ll settle for FTP because I can synchronize this with any other external server.

It’s possible?
