Port forward on strict ISP? (alien.top)

I have a home storage, i want it to be accessible through my IP, but the ISP has disabled port forward so that's not an option. I tried ngrok and it's not reliable for large transfers. Is there any other method i could possibly make my home server accessible without relying on third party services that will bottleneck me?

When I was at college, I used a free tier AWS box to allow me to make things inside the school network public through some SSH and proxy shenanigans, and I used the box to let me escape the anti-vpn firewall rules they had by tunneling my VPN service through SSH

Unfortunately, this is a third party, but considering its a cloud platform, it might be a bit more reliable than a third party service.
