What is the best cloud storage provider right now? (sh.itjust.works)

What is the best cloud storage that gives a nice balance between features and privacy? I know you can manually encrypt files to use any provider, but I would prefer an open source E2EE for the sake of convenience.

Currently I have heard about the following:

proton
filen
sync
icedrive
pcloud

(Not including GDrive, Onedrive etc..)

Unless you're hosting that off site, it's not really fulfilling the same complete purpose of cloud storage.

What do you mean, self-hosted is equally reachable regardless of where it's hosted.

You can self host and make it accessible only to you from anywhere in the world.

You might be thinking about it not fulfilling the 3-2-1 backup strategy, but as long as you have a remote copy of the data through some means then you have the remote copy fulfilled.
