SVG clipart upload

In order to have backup of all the files which we have recovered (around 157k) and also backup of future uploads to the website, we are looking for suggestions what would be the best option.
Files are now 90GB in raw format or 20GB when archived so gitlab and github are not an option since it is above their limits.
Also it would be useful that backup location offers easy synchronisation.
We came up with few suggestions but all have drawbacks:
1. To make public folder on OneDrive where anybody can access it (easy to synchronise, but again it is private account and in case that something happens to freesvg.org, account will probably have same destiny)
2. To make torrent file (impossible to synchronise, accessible to anyone anywhere)
3. To make an account and upload it to Amazon S3 or DigitalOcean Spaces (it is commercial, but several people can have access to it and continue to finance it).

My two cents: then purhaps someplace else on a private server devoted to opensource resources which an individual may already have, or split between 2 githubs/gitlabs. Or maybe freesvg could set aside some server space to hold publically accessable zipbackup

As stated by the webdevelopers, further suggestions are welcome and may be discussed.

Google Drive gives 15 GB.

Internet Archive?

Or offer it for download and count on users acting as distributed back-up.
