our eu-central-1 services had zero disruption during this incident, the only impact was that if we _had_ had any issues we couldn't log in to the AWS console to fix them

So moving stuff out of us-east-1 absolutely does help

Sure it helps. Folks just saying there’s lots of examples where you still get hit by the blast radius of a us-east-1 issue even if you’re using other regions.

There have been region-specific console pages for a number of years now.
