I do my archiving to S3 Glacier Deep Archive but my data volume is still so low that Amazon doesn't bother charging my card.

Does it accumulate month to month and eventually they charge you once a threshold is reached?
I think they'll charge me only when my current monthly statement is enough to charge. Pretty sure I've never been charged so far with my monthly statement being like 0.02€.
I have the same situation with backblaze B2, cents a month bill, they roll that into one ~ yearly charge.
How do you achieve deduplication with S3?
how much data are we talking about?
Some tens of gigabytes at this point? It's definitely not a lot. Mostly just some stuff that doesn't make sense to keep locally but I still want to have a copy in case a disaster strikes.
