I've noticed a lot of people choosing EC2 for their first instance
despite my protests.
I think they are terrible value for money and slow.
They argue EC2 free to start and it's scalable.
Good VPS companies like Bitfolk/Bytemark don't do a free tier, though
they are scalable IIUC.
Or am I missing something?
