These articles are pointless, they completely miss any nuance to you and your solution.
Who are you? A hobbyist developer? A small team of 3 devs? A large company with multiple teams of devs dbas sysops?
What's your use case? An occasional Cron job? A small WordPress site? A distributed HA app that manages a huge ingress with strict uptime SLAs?
Where do you want to spend your effort? Happy to apt-get a few packages and call it a day? Need to create and maintain a load balanced postgres cluster with low lag and cross region replication and backups?
There are a lot of considerations that go into choosing a provider. Making blanket statements like this just feel click baity.
