I've heard good things about backblaze which has an s3 compatible API (meaning it supports most tools). Like s3 this probably means it has a similar learning curve
Proton has good service
I would suggest an alternative that allows you to use any of the "Big Ones" like iCloud/OneDrive/GoogleCloud/ Dropbox.
Buy Cryptomator on whatever device(s) need access and set up a single vault on any cloud service you use. This vault will be client-side end to end encrypted which means its just you with knowledge of and managing the encryption keys. Put them in your password manager for a while until you memorize.
Remember, if they aren't YOUR keys, it doesn't really belong exclusively to you.
ICloud. Although, it doesn’t really make any sense if you’re not already somewhat in the “Apple ecosystem”.
Last I checked it’s e2e encrypted.
A more general suggestion is probably ProtonDrive or NordLocker. I’ve used both of them in the past but found them slow and clunky, tbf it was some time ago and they were still in beta.
As long as you turn on “Advanced Data Protection” then iCloud is end to end encrypted.
This doesn’t include mail, calendar or contacts but for iCloud files (which would cover what’s being asked here) it is e2e encrypted.
Can’t believe I forgot the most important step. Thanks for the addition dude :)
