Amazon sells most of the same stuff. The appeal is that if you buy cheap stuff from Amazon you can get it for cheaper on Temu but have to wait 2 weeks instead of 2 days.

Also, a lot of people here work for startups or have their own startups. The cloud makes a lot of sense for startups for a variety of reasons. Low capex, easier to get started, you’re willing to pay a premium to not have to deal with certai
