I could start maybe looking to package the Rust one

RustFS has already been packaged by the Cloudron team. It's in the app store. But note that it's still in Alpha.

I've also posted elsewhere a minio fork that's a dropin replacement with more features to boot.

Like timka said, I didn't poke RustFS for reliabiliy/newness reasons, and was reasonably pleased that Garage fit a similar niche/seems to fit the Cloudron model (self-hosting/limited-scale hosting).

No licence needed. No hidden fees. No complex tiers.' And thats a downer.

In my opinion, Ceph makes much more sense when used in combination with the right hardware. I think this might be too much for a proper Minio replacement. I assume that many people just use an 'S3 compatible' setup and not a multi-node setup. Considering the Cloudron context, I don't think Ceph is the right choice.

Well, the development of RustFS is proceeding quite quickly (https://github.com/rustfs/rustfs/releases), but there is still no major version. It has the 'rust is better' vibe, but they also address typical deployments directly (single node, single disk, etc.). I'm testing it in other contexts and I like it, but I won't trust it until it has at least reached major version status.

GarageHQ has been around for a while and supports multi-node and single-node deployments. It has a nice Docker deployment and in there documentation is a good read for comparing S3 alternatives: https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/documentation/reference-manual/s3-compatibility/.

Whats the implication of that on its cloudron app ?

Probably time to look at Minio alternatives:
