I'm glad I'm not the only software engineer that can't figure out how to use AWS. So far, DigitalOcean does everything that I need. I hope they can maintain this great developer experience.

AWS is much more structured to treat infrastructure like cattle rather than pets. DO blends the line a bit, but in spinning up a ‘droplet’ you’re leaning more on the ‘pet’ type of thinking. I’m super bullish on DO - they have the API to act like AWS (to a degree) but the UI to support small/individual teams.
