I have seen far too many articles of these types.
As someone who has sent billions of emails I can tell you the following.
1. SES is shit. 2. Value of mailchimp is not in its interface. It is in mail deliverability.
Use at least sendgrid.

I would not consider SES "shit" because it does not baby-sit you throughout the setup process. The documentation was solid, and I had a lot of freedom to customize a solution specific to my use case. Overall working SES has been an enjoyable experience.
But maybe my mind will change 1 billion emails later haha we'll see.
Don't get me wrong, it might be perfectly fine choice for smaller projects but it is not a solution you would rely for scale. You have to build your own mailservers with warmed up IPs.
