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

I'm using Backblaze as well (B2). It's pretty nice and the s3fuse package supports it natively. If you're worried about privacy of stuff you store there, though, you're going to want to encrypt before storing.
Thanks, I'll check it out
Tresorit is the best of them all.
It has all the features that matter, it's fast, it's E2EE, have automatic photo upload, it's cross-platform ... ticks all the boxes.
It also ticks the high price box, though.
Besides that you have Filen (good but not great, very cheap for a cloud storage with E2EE), Skiff Drive (lacks some features, but it will be my preferred cloud storage as soon as they have automatic photo upload), Proton Drive (lacks a lot of features and it's expensive), MEGA (I have a legacy account, it's 50GB that I use for the non-sensitive data), ...
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 :)
