Also ... Dropbox is a good example of a product that has lost it's way. It went from a very simple and clear product with strong value to something we all now work around. Its more reliable to email or slack files than deal with whatever confusing thing Dropbox is doing.

And you think that's because they moved off of AWS?

I am observing that there is no correlation between location of hosting and quality or user experience. OP used DropBox as a reference for a company that moved off AWS. My observation is that DropBox sucks.
