Why can we not have services where people make donations to a global company with enough resources to host these full nodes for them. , like we have with Cloud mining.

This would lead to the centralization of the nodes from which Bitcoin Cash currently suffers. I would rather pay for multiple VPS rather than rent a dedicated server which would not be used at all and owned by me. Setting up Bitcoin Core is quite easy, especially if you decide to use GUI and know how to forward ports.

Plus yes, there's a service for Ethereum users that runs nodes for you in a data center called Infuria. Haha.

The Ethereum Blockchain is much bigger than Bitcoin's. Archive nodes have to store more than 1 TB of data! That's why many people choose pruned nodes which have to download only about 80 GB of data.
