There are also those such as myself who instead feel that Azure's UI is by far by worst of the big three, and that GCP is not bad at all, and that AWS is big, complex, and ugly, yet practical. The long term support story of AWS is also great.

I agree in general, but specific services can be a problem. New server images have broken my apps, waiting for AWS to update support for languages or RDBMS can be painful, documentation is generally confusing (mostly because there are 10 ways to do every simple thing), and I bump into bugs regularly.
