Just put everything in cloud, use closed-in vendor solutions and overpriced eager fees as its typical VC way to just burn money cause "developers cost more" (maybe in California).

I was big cloud enjoyer in like 2016-20 but then some hacker news post open my eyes to the truth. They are trying to milk everyone and hook every possible person on some free credits then bump prices and get fat profits and ofc make as hard as possible getting out of the platform.

I just don't care and move to smaller providers for VPS and database + cloudflare for dns and pseudo s3 (still in almost free tier).
