I guess it is economics. If the company is paying to store your data, they want unencrypted (or decryptable) access to it to use the data to make money. If they are storing it encrypted (and not decryptable), then they are not able to monetize your data. If you are also not paying them, they have no incentive to invest resources building migration tools. If there is an app out there with e2e encryption and easy migration, I bet it is paid.
