The pie is big enough and also don’t think big cloud players and DO are after the same customers.

34% of the web still runs on Wordpress. A lot want somewhere cheap and easy to use with more power than shared hosting.

AWS LightSail is basically DigitalOcean with a huge jetpack with the ability to extend into AWS's ecosystem.

You on the AWS Social Media Team or something? People don't want to do business with Amazon.

LightSail is really really slow. You will have to pay double to get similar CPU performance to DO.

But I guess that is the price you pay for being AWS ready.
