I'd argue just find a different cloud provider.

GCP, Azure, Supabase, Cloudflare etc if you want managed services.

If you want a mix of managed services and raw compute, look more at Fly.io, Linode, Digital Ocean perhaps?

I have found AWS being the "cheapest" or even "reasonable" in the cost department to be slimmer every year.

Cloudflare doesn’t let you host Docker containers or offer managed Postgres do they?

Its all about how they may fit in your stack. Most definitely fly.io does. I think Cloudflare as far as I'm aware is they're looking at supporting Docker.

I just listed managed services (not all of them may fit I imagined)

Steer clear of Digital Ocean.

They've had senior staff on HN justifying security lapses that commenters were describing as a "clownshoes operation".
