I've been using AWS at $day_job for 11 years.

I can safely say to anyone who is looking into using AWS for their computing projects: DON'T.

Not only is Amazon one of the most evil companies on the planet, their AWS is one of the worst cobbled together pieces of garbage I've had the displeasure of using. Not only that ... They charge you a premium for the displeasure.

They will also try to lock you in to their services so you're dependent on them; they actually "dumb down" I.T. in doing so.

If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance. Search https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/users/pertho/statuses/115659968030728958 on your instance and quote it. (Note that quoting is not supported in Mastodon.)
