You probably don’t need AWS and are better off without it

Maybe I don't want to learn Raspberry Pi to start my little SaaS idea. To search and click in the AWS console to get some MVP up and running cannot be beaten that easily. Can I get a Raspberry Pi site with a few 100$/month, my efforts included?

I'd argue, for an average software engineer, setting up a Raspberry pi is going to be easier than setting up an EC2 instance. It almost sounds like you've never actually done the "click in the AWS console to get some MVP" running before.

Sorry if this is too harsh, but if you can't figure out how to run an app on a Raspberry Pi then I definitely would't trust you to click around the AWS console.

If I use the Raspberry Pi browser to deploy via the AWS console does that count?
