Is there a reason you don't want to use S3? It's hard to recommend a product without understanding your goals here.

I don't love the idea of giving Amazon money. And while I haven't done much research, I would imagine there might be an offering that does a better job catering to small projects, since S3 is very much built for "full-sized" use cases. Could be wrong about that. But mainly I'm just curious to know what the players are in the space.

The cost of S3 for any small to medium sized project is so minuscule you’re not really giving amazon much money. Especially if you compare it to using EC2 or another VPS provider like digital ocean
