I completely agree. I've been complaining about AWS UX and how they name, split and bill for their services for ages.

I'm now on Azure (for no choice of my own) and it's a complete dumpster fire, even worse than AWS.

GCloud (which I was on 5 years ago) was the least worse of the big one and it wasn't good either.

I've been impressed by DigitalOcean, but it's not a popular choice in large companies. Nobody got fired for recommending AWS, Microsoft or Google.

For my own hosting I pick Hertzner simply because it's cheaper and I don't need a UI or services that hold your hands.
