The main cloud service I use daily for playing around is Replit. Otherwise, I use vercel for hosting sites, cloudflare for domain management, and MongoDB for databases.

AWS has traumatized me due to the way their customer service was and how much they charged for hosting a few python websites (Almost $400 a month!)

I've been using AWS since 2014.

How did they charge you $400 for hosting a few websites?
What services did you use?
An EC2 instance with 2 GB costs less than $0.02 per hour, which translates into less than $14 per month.

I never contacted their Support for technical questions or issues, since their documentation covered everything I needed.
