Thank you for bringing this to light.

I have been heads down on my own side hustle as a one man show. Do you have any suggestions on how to properly approach backups for smaller groups like myself working with limited funds?

For context, some of the tech on my plate includes a few DO ubuntu droplets (hosting docker containerized services), Postgres DB (prod DO managed w/ auto-snaps, pretty much same scenario you mentioned), S3 storage for user-created assets (DO spaces w/ no backup strategy yet; no, not launched, yet), GitHub for source code, and physical MacBooks (iCloud + manual backups to a single physical external SSD).

Realistically speaking I’m bootstrapped. More importantly, I’m interested in learning the right ways in doing backups.
