Replace minio as suggested S3 solution #1727
Description
Feature Request
The docs currently recommend minio as suggested S3-compatible storage solution, however, minio recently went into maintenance mode (with a push to their proprietary offering) and should probably not be recommended anymore.
There are several alternative open-source solutions that provide S3-compatible storage:
- Versity S3 Gateway: https://github.com/versity/versitygw
- SeaweedFS: https://github.com/seaweedfs/seaweedfs
- Garage: https://github.com/deuxfleurs-org/garage
- rustfs: https://github.com/rustfs/rustfs
I'm currently trying out Versity with Docs and will be happy to report back how that goes.

Garage 🇫🇷 (https://git.deuxfleurs.fr/Deuxfleurs/garage) 👍
Je l’utilise personnellement à petite échelle. Il fonctionne très bien et se fait discret (seulement 300M de RAM). Cela devrait convenir aux particuliers et petites structures.
Je n’ai pas eu l’occasion de l’évaluer à grande échelle mais d’après sa documentation il ne devrait pas y avoir de problèmes.

Unfortunately Garage and several s3 providers do not work really well because they dont have object version feature as discussed here: #1060

Without versioning we can't provide version history and version restauration so it's a bit of blocker indeed.
