I fail to see the problem.

Your asshole “buddy” constantly throwing sharp objects at balloon causing you to be wet all the time and laughing as you ask your mom if she can mend your massive cylinder for the 13th time this month

I feel like this whole thread was a setup for this. Bravo!

I’ll just compress more helium and make the balloon metal so its stronger and holds more in a smaller space

Your buddy has figured out that all they need to do is snip the ropes on your cylinder which will make it fly away and now you gotta ask your mom to buy you a new cylinder until your whole family is broke and homeless

I think holding more helium in a smaller space is the opposite of what you want. The lifting force is equal to the weight of the air being displaced, so you want as little stuff as possible in as big a volume as possible.
Maybe if you went the other way round and compressed the atmosphere?
