The real problem is that developers don’t choose AWS anymore (because honestly, given a choice between AWS and a vendor who thinks deeply about developer experience, who would?). They choose Vercel, or Netlify, or whatever their AI coding assistant suggests when they type “deploy this.”
Some charts/survey/data would be nice to see here. Still, I hear this sentiment a lot. If it gets into the chatter, true or not, it will have negative consequences for AWS.
