Can anyone share if they are using PBS with remote backup storage only? I’d like to backup directly to an offsite location, so no backing up to a local drive and then syncing that to remote…

I have a dedicated server for PVE and another one for PBS, and by linking the PBS storage on the PVE server I can backup and also restore my LXC/VM from PBS. I also have 1 local backup copy on the PVE server for my really important services (DNS, Proxy, etc..) to allow quicker restauration of these services.
