Last time I looked into this, there were no (cheap) providers that allow you to permanently reside in another country

Depends on the definition of cheap. I.e. firstly is available in most countries afaik, no matter where your residence is.

It's not very cheap if you want to use it for months, but plenty of other options around too

Firstly is extremely expensive. To give you an idea, my 200Gb/month 5G uncapped speed plan costs me 14 euros a month here in France.

Amusingly this plan includes 40Gb/month in Germany at no additional costs which is much cheaper than a German plan.
