Have you tried compressing your JSON before base64 encoding it.

Agreed with GP, it seems like you don't even need a backend.

Rent a $5 cloud server, copy main.py, app.py and db.py from here (https://github.com/void4/lazyweb/blob/main/main.py) and use json.dumps/loads(data) to (de)serialize the JSON data into a text field

I think you know best what you want to build yourself. :-)
If you separate the abstract interface for sending/receiving game states and its implementation, you can rely on an external service like hushfile to get started, and then switch to running a similar service yourself afterwards. Saves you from having to deploy and maintain the server initially.
Running a VPS wouldn't cost more than $5/mo.
Since nobody mentioned it, you may want to consider:
It is a service specifically for managing JSON game state.
But it comes with its own ideas, so your mileage may vary.
