Would it be against your ToS if the OP hosted a small $5 Hetzner server that mounted your FS with sshfs and hosted files with a simple proxy?
Don't use hetzner for shit like this. They're EXTREMELY strict on abuse.

IPFS is a good solution in theory, but in my experience it works so poorly in practice that I wouldn't trust it as my only form of archival. Certainly add files to IPFS too if you want, but not exclusively .
