Unpopular opinion: it is not bad, it is just normal average modern startup attitude. Let's put everything into cloud, use Spanner or Aurora for data, Firebase for user mgmt, throw together bunch of lambdas and voila, we are in business.
And I am not being judgemental, because this approach is working 95 times of 100, and most of startups are dying anyway before they hit the wall of vendor lock.
