So is apparently making readable site.

Software like https://restic.net/ does a good job. Few choices of backend

Accepts stuff from pipe too so you can just pipe mysqldump or pg_dumpall without intermediate files

Very decent options for checking repo integrity, personally (well, at work too, we use it on few hundred user machines and servers) I also added "roll a dice for backup and try to restore it" test script to make sure it is working

Decent deduplication too so "store year's worth of weekly snapshot" is very sensible strategy once you exclude the "constantly changing and useless" (caches etc.) files out of it

can mount FUSE directory with all backups on sensible OSes.

https://kopia.io/ does the same +GUI but a bit worse on CLI front (it insists on keeping local config which makes scripting a bit more involved, but not much)
