Should I use TAPE BACKUP in 2023? LTO-5 Drive with Proxmox Backup Server

As promised in a previous video about my Proxmox Backup Server, I have a Quantum LTO-5 tape drive that I'm going to try and use to implement a proper 3-tier backup strategy with offsite tapes.

I'm currently using Linode's object storage for backing up my personal data (~200G), and not backing up the video files outside of the two existing copies (on the storage server and the PBS server). With the affordability of tapes, I can keep the video files and personal data off-site reliably.
