alt Hacker NewsThat's good. I want to keep some institutional knowledge and photos in "cold storage" and cloud subscriptions with a credit card and password are completely inviable.
I'll probably get a spinner and a flash drive and hope one of them survives the years.

Unless the data is huge, you're probably going to be better off with M-Disc Blurays or DVDs, as they're explicitly designed for what you're trying to do.
If privacy is your primary problem with cloud storage, I would suggest veracrypt containers. And if you aren't storing too much data, I would also suggest DVD/BluRay optical media with DVDisaster and PAR2 archives. I keep a DVD spindle in a safe deposit box that gets updated each year.
