They don’t get flak because most folks are in AWS or Azure. You notice when AWS or Azure hiccups because of this. GCP, not so much (besides Spotify and Snap, although I believe Snap’s 5yr $2B GCP commit deal recently ended).

Worth noting that Snap also has a commitment with AWS, they are not exclusively running on GCP.

Also worth noting that AWS is not exactly the most stable either.

Ah, good point about higher usage therefore flak, I hadn't considered that. Thanks.

Bjarne Stroustrup’s classic quote “There are only two kinds of languages: the ones people complain about and the ones nobody uses” certainly applies here.
