it was on some temporary AWS service like lambda or something? (We had eight ECS tasks on AWS, all running five instances of our backend), but, regardless logs should be somewhere persistent.
If they weren't, that should be the first thing you fix.

I don't think showing stack traces to users is good practice? Every time one of my users gets a didn't work message I log the stack trace instead.

Why would you show them a stack trace? This should be logged.

There's value in having your backtrace surfaced to end users rather than swallowing an exception and displaying "didn't work".
