The smallest droplet is 5 dollars a month, do you pay 50 cents a month for your shared hosting?
>100x more in time
Have you even looked into DO or are you just making assumptions? You can create a ton of apps with one click (One-click apps) and install a full stack with WordPress, Drupal, Django, and much, much more, and it just works. If anything, it's the same amount of effort as some cPanel shared hosting.

You can create a ton of apps with one click (One-click apps) and install a full stack with WordPress, Drupal, Django, and much, much more, and it just works. My company manages servers for non-technical people whose small business or hobby websites have outgrown shared hosting. I often get clients who found out a little too late that running a Linux machine securely and efficiently is much more complicated than deploying a one-click app on DigitalOcean (or a similar service). I sweep in, optimize the hell out of everything, and occasionally patch some gaping security holes. So no, it doesn't "just work". At least not in the long term.
