Everything that happened during my infuriating iPhone installation was to sell more storage make me think my phone is too small, what a scam. 5gb of cloud storage might work on my iPod from 2008.

If you upgraded to a higher system version and were operating at the limits of the old one then I am guessing the newer iOS may be taking up more room and crowding out the old data.
I just use a computer and I transfer all my bulky photos off my iPhone once I get 50 or more on there. I have 4 devices backed up to my 5 GB. ;-)
You can choose. I manage to get by with 5 GB. If you want to use iCloud then there are plans for various levels of storage.
Read this support article for instructions on how to upgrade to iCloud+ --> Upgrade to iCloud+ - Apple Support
- The article includes instructions for various hardware and managing your plan.
Or you can choose not to pay for more and use a computer to back up, sync, etc.
Did the backup but then the phone I bought with the exact same room somehow doesn’t have enough space for the back up. Imo is all to get you to spend more to just to “make it easier” because it was ridiculous to spend over 8 hours setting up a new phone because of storage space.
