€3 / month for 5 GB, €9 / month for 50 GB - that's rather overpriced
for cloud storage:

The big cloud providers (e.g. Backblaze) - whose business model does
indeed involve charging money - charge as little as $5 / month per
*terabyte* (plus egress), in addition to giving a few or few dozen GB
free:

I'm personally using Scaleway with rclone, which offers 75 GB free (but
€12 / month per terabyte beyond that).
Other prominent vendors (besides the obvious ones) include Wasabi and
rsync.net. Pricing is tricky, as they break the fees into different
categories (hot and cold storage, egress, etc.)
