> three yeh $5 sounds cheap but some people still can't afford that

I don't buy that excuse, as AWS requires a valid CC to gain access to their free tier, and no hypothetical user who can't afford €5/month will have CCs to pass off at will.

I'm not sure about AWS but firebase and google cloud functions don't. My younger sister actually uses it for her backend. She's a college student and $5 a month if affordable but she doesn't want to pay it. I'd would also say I would in college maybe have 100-200 dollars to work with. Yeh I could pay it but I wouldn't want to.
