Maybe, but it would take a _lot_ of people moving small deployments (where by definition the savings would be small especially relative to the fixed costs of getting to work on Arm) in a relatively short space of time to have this impact - so I'm sceptical (and if it is then it must be very easy to move to Arm - which I'm also sceptical of). More likely some very big customers (peer comment mentions Twitter) moving to Graviton2 for cost savings.

Graviton might be the top and/or default choice in their management console when you create an EC2 instance. That would swing things pretty quickly for all the free tier folks. Edit: Nope, not yet, but close..you still have to change the radio button: https://imgur.com/a/W0Sweyy https://imgur.com/a/W0Sweyy

  I'm confused - the x86 box is ticked by default there.

    Yes...edited my edit. I'm pretty sure there was no radio button for some time, you would have had to scroll into other choices to get a Graviton instance.
