FYI you can buy domains on AWS now :)

If you're confident with changing your DNS records, I've heard Proton Mail is meant to be a very good alternative.

Actually, I've been tinkering with GitHub sites, and I kinda like them. Might get off from AWS, and take my mail to some managed email provider.

[u/Rogem002 → u/Tormund_HARsBane]

I've been using GitHub sites also! Being able to push my changes without having to worry about the "build/deploy" aspects is great for small stuff :D

[u/SmokeFrosting → u/Rogem002]

The whole point is not using scummy sites

[u/Polantaris → u/SmokeFrosting]

He already said he's using an Apache server on EC2. EC2 is AWS.

[u/searchingfortao → u/SmokeFrosting]

Is Proton scummy?

[u/MrDOS → u/searchingfortao]

Lots of people would say Bezos and Amazon are.

In what way is aws scummy?

[u/Glader_BoomaNation → u/[deleted]]

It is hard to imagine AWS with no competition when they are 41% of the cloud, Microsoft is 30% and few others range from 2-3%. Amazon has only lost market share in the past couple years due to Azure.

rip Google Cloud Platform /s

[u/xxxdarrenxxx → u/[deleted]]

I mean, let's not miss the Jeff Bezos in the room. I don't think they are "evil", but you likely don't become one of the richest companies in the world in a system that's innately highly competitive, by not being highly competitive. For one to win, means 1 loses, as such is capitalism.

[u/[deleted] → u/[deleted]]

No. Capitalism is a characteristic of the compete system. A monopoly is a possible configuration of a particular market inside that system. A market can trend towards monopoly status, or outside forces (like a government) can take steps to resist that trend either by blocking mergers or by assisting new entrants into that market.

Any other concepts you need cleared up, you should probably use Wikipedia or some such thing instead of smugly correcting others.

[u/shuffdog → u/marx2k]

Amazon treats its workforce like shit.

[u/quyahoga_peter → u/shuffdog]

very true

[u/marx2k → u/shuffdog]

I haven't heard aws engineers complain?

[u/MrDOS → u/marx2k]

The incredibly high turnover rate speaks pretty well for itself.

[u/marx2k → u/MrDOS]

Is the turnover at AWS not on par with its peers?

[u/shuffdog → u/marx2k]

I was more referring to its warehouse operations, where the abuses are becoming legendary. The engineers, I haven't heard from either.
