Price isn't a factor (happy to a few hundred bucks a year for safekeeping of files/memories).

The reason I prefer google drive / iCloud is (I think) they have backups so if a truck or a comet hits one of their data centers, my files probably won't be lost.

Whereas I don't think that's true of S3. Perhaps someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I think with AWS/GCP it's up to the user to manage redundancy.

I'll pay annually to reduce this risk. For some reason I doubt google would just delete my data if I went into a coma for a year or two, but I can't back that up with a source. It's just a hope.

I'd consider paying 10 years in advance if I could tbh.
