This. A dozen time this.

I am lost in trying to start off a sensible / official / approved AWS setup but I can use some years old bash and salt s riots to setup my raspberry pis sitting there in front of me.

It's not just me (maybe mostly me) but there is a new layer of complexity - I can learn and understand the FOSS but trying to learn AWS means piercing the layers of marketing that are creeping in - one of the huge advantages of a FOSS readme is it comes from the head of the person who designed the system i want to use. not a product manager who probably misses the technical point anyway

So yeah. I am wary.
