I can’t speak for everyone, but I know Synology and Backblaze B2 are especially popular with the IT crowd. Sure the software might be a little clunky, but it does work.
Costs can vary wildly but take a look at B2 pricing and extrapolate. Synology can act as a time machine target for Apple devices.
Personally, if I wanted to do something on a budget, I would probably get some hard drives and periodically add stuff to them and then replace the drives on a schedule to mitigate failure.
When I can afford a house in a year or two, I plan to setup a Synology NAS.
