New Backblaze pricing: egress still billed?
Hi,
I store around 1TB at Backblaze Cloud storage. To reduce some storage usage, I ran "restic prune --max-unused 0" which should be fine as restic told me it will repack 60GB which is much lower then 3x of the average storage. But after downloading around 45GB I got
"Your Backblaze Daily Download-Bandbreite Cap of $0.50 has reached 75%".
Any ideas? I also asked the support about it.

Got a reply from the support:
Ok, that's still confusing I think.
What are you paying as that seems expensive?

If you are averaging 1TB stored a month, then you should be able to download 3TB before being charged. You can probably set a daily cap, but the billing adjustment would not come into play until your monthly storage is calculated.

According to the reports section, 1,093.0 GB avg GB is stored in October. So I thought it's already calculated and the estimated egress fees would refer to it.
