  Backblaze B2, iDrive E2, Hetzner, Cloudflare R2, Wasabi.

  Or you can ship a drive to zfs.rent

  I'd suggest the same and either install something like MinIO, or just go ahead with a "regular" storage VPS.
  Less complexity, more flexibility.

  Instead of minio I guess garage would be better in VMs..... I haven't tried the garage myself.... Might just do it in a VM I got my hands on thanks to @NDTN forgetting to limit the coupon.
