Re:ScreenWall – Turn old phones into synced widgets for your space

I will upgrade when my device is many generations out of date. So no one really wants to buy one and I will then buy not the latest but a generation or two “out of date” so it’s cheaper. So I have a heap of phones over the years that no one wants. Not even me.

It was there first, and it used to be the one stop shop for everything you needed.
Then it got not only complicated but complex, and full of vendor lock in.
It used to be easy to orchestrate, there were terraform modules for everything. I chose it multiple times for that exact reason.
The cost structure used to also be good, you knew how much your bill was gonna be, you could get cheaper pricing if you went for spot instances etc.
