WhatsApp backups to be counted in GDrive Storage use. Alternatives?

Much simpler option would be what @AwAcS mentioned above. Simply backup the chat in google drive while keep backup of media in whatever local/cloud storage you have. In case of restore, just restore chats from google backup & restore media from local/other cloud source to recreate the original WA chats.
@napstersquest

Also, 100GB google drive plan is available for Rs.130 per month which is very reasonable considering ppl spend 180 every month on mobile phone plans they don't even use that much just to keep the number alive.

I was assuming it uses scoped storage permissions, clearly am wrong on this.

Already paying for G Drive since several years, have the space - but still would use OneDrive since I know its not being used that much

I am also not sure but using MiXplorer on miui 12.5 running A11 it worked fine & my guess is it should be fine for later versions too as I think mixplorer & other file managers on android have figured out a way to access scoped permission on non-system partition without using root.
