I want to mount some B2 buckets on Linux for read/write access. What do people recommend?

s3fs, rclone or GeeseFS seem to be the sensible choices, but please share your hard-won opinions with me.

edit: or goofys?

    I have a similar use case and whilst I’m not quite there yet I’m intending to go with a storage box

      I plan to switch over later when it makes sense to - the nice thing about Backblaze is that it scales with your storage, whereas with Hetzner you have to jump from 1 TB to 5 TB.

        Oh I know, I had the same thoughts

        Object storage does really bad as a filesystem and it may very seriously be cheaper for you to have a 5TB storage box over 2TB of object storage

        S3 has no list operation, so any time the computer wants to “list” a directory in object storage that is expensive
