It has the option to back up hourly, daily, or weekly.  Hourly is too
much, and daily is too little -- I'd like to back up every 6 hours.

 Hourly isn't too much. 🤣 Hourly backups let you undelete files you just
deleted, or roll back to a version of the file you modified. And an hourly
frequency means incremental backup will be smaller and faster. So I
really have to wonder what makes you claim they are "too much"...
 

Especially when you realize that it does do backup culling to avoid using TOO much storage.
