This would mean that rsync now works with S3 as it has an sftp target... correct?

  No, rsync over ssh requires the rsync binary on the remote side. Possible for Amazon to add but I don't see it mentioned.

  You should try the mirror sub-system of lftp [1]. It can replicate rsync behavior on a chroot sftp server. No idea if that works on Amazon, but I use it all the time on my own chroot sftp servers. [1] - https://tinyvpn.org/sftp/#lftp https://tinyvpn.org/sftp/#lftp

    lftp is fantastic. The mirror function has a “reverse mode” too For regular tasks you could also look at “rclone” which is like rsync in many ways but can upload to s3, backblaze b2, sftp and any more directly. Without remote support.

  You might just want to look into rclone, which supports S3 and many other cloud services natively.
