Hi Ville,
The latest nightly binary packages for macOS and Windows do now contain S3
support: install.packages("arrow", repos = "
https://arrow-r-nightly.s3.amazonaws.com";)

Linux is more challenging. https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/8058 has
some notes on that, as well as some other enhancements you may be
interested to see.
