JustAnotherEarthling *humorous/satirical* (@RobBoggs4) reported@amazon @awscloud Just recently, I was refunded over a $150 usd when doing a specific search for southern[that's zone 9-10]centipede grass seed. Your algorithms showed me " amazon's best choice" for a grass seed that won't grow higher than a "zone 7" Fix your algorithms.

Dr. Mihir Sharma (@mihircurovana) reported@AWSSupport Hi @AWSSupport I don’t see any such option in the widget or anywhere in the console, is this an AISL or India specific issue maybe? I see no options to upgrade

Ødoworitse | DevOps Factory (@ceO_Odox) reportedEvery DevOps engineer knows "It works on my machine" is a lie. Hit a wall today deploying to @awscloud EC2—*** was begging for a password in a headless shell. Error: fatal: could not read Username. Reality: The source URL drifted, and the automation had no keyboard to answer. 🧵

Inwestment (@shapeshiftax) reported@crypto_bitlord7 Wasn't that about Amazon AWS, though? Other things were down, possibly related?
-
Ronny A. (@DjTimbao) reported@AWSSupport The issue is that the team is NOT responding via the case. It’s been 3 days for this one and 8 days for the previous one. I am totally blocked. Can you at least escalate Case ID 177654556500245 to the Billing and account team? 'Working via the case' is currently impossible Thanks

Carbon Tax Neil (@NeilPitman10) reported@AWSSupport Great! another bot. OK, but no one is looking at the github issues log.

Ankur Agrahari (@agrahariankur21) reported@AWSSupport Yes it's really really frustrating as my 15+ clients website applications and all the mobile apps are not working since 12 hours and 500+ employees salaries were not disbursed due to this issue, but no instant help from your service team. Case Id sent privately.

Sadiq (@Md_Sadiq_Md) reported@AWSSupport Wow, which issues are those which are not been resolved from past 3 days

Goksal (@goksaladiguzel) reported@awscloud If banks, especially those relying on COBOL-based legacy systems, replace them with modern software, they would most likely require 20–30 times more computing capacity than their current server infrastructure, and in general they still wouldn’t reach COBOL’s level of performance. And also, every time we go to an ATM to withdraw money, we will most likely see a “null point exception.”

Gajanan (@Gajanan_Shetkar) reported@AWSSupport Hope AWS continues supporting Indian startups during difficult situations like this. After 5 years of building on AWS, we’re still waiting for resolution while our production platform remains down. Requesting urgent assistance.

chen (@chen10075495) reported@amazon @OpenAI @awscloud Amazon AI Pricing Is Killing the Buy Box Losing Buy Box because AI compares my product to cheaper, non-equivalent listings — even external ones. To compete = sell at a loss. This punishes real brands. Fix this. #AmazonSeller

Martin Alltimes (@Palatineirish) reported@awscloud What’s the difference between modernising and rebooting. Terrible, confusing text.

Ibraheem Tuffaha 🥛 (@IbraheemTuffaha) reportedwhen you try to buy Savings Plans yourself 🫠 @awscloud gives you Savings Plans and Reserved Instances Different types, different terms, different quantities They even give you recommendations Those recommendations go stale in days Usage shifts, workloads change, and suddenly you're either underutilized or short Under-buy and you miss the savings Over-buy and you're locked into years of commitment you don't need We've watched companies spend months on this and still get it wrong @MilkStrawAI does it automatically Scans the AWS account, figures out exactly how much commitment is needed, and buys it gradually over a week If usage shifts up or down, the system adjusts on its own Zero intervention from the client They just see the bill drop at the end of the month

Trevor Skinner (@PrometheusAIsec) reportedI’m getting real tired of watching this industry pretend dependency is innovation. The entire tech world got sold on the idea that hardware was the problem and cloud was the solution. And to be fair, Amazon AWS played it perfectly. From a business standpoint, it was brilliant. Make infrastructure easy. Make it scalable. Make it fast. Make it cheaper to start. Then make it harder and harder to leave. That’s the part nobody wants to talk about. At first, cloud feels like freedom. No racks. No servers. No switches. No up-front hardware cost. No late nights swapping drives, troubleshooting power, rebuilding arrays, or fighting broken infrastructure. But over time, that freedom can turn into a leash. I’ve seen enough real-world systems to know the difference between convenience and control. Access control, networking, servers, security hardware, firewalls, cameras, panels, credentials, cloud dashboards, hosted platforms, vendor portals — it all looks great until the business depends on something it does not actually own. That is where the trap starts. One vendor controls the platform. One vendor controls the pricing. One vendor controls the updates. One vendor controls the outage window. One vendor controls the rules. One vendor controls the ecosystem. Then businesses slowly build everything around it. Compute, storage, databases, backups, monitoring, identity, deployment, physical security, access control, video, alerts, compliance, logging, and billing. By the time they realize how deep they are, leaving is no longer a simple decision. It becomes a migration project. A budget problem. A staffing problem. A security concern. A downtime risk. A business risk. That is not just convenience. That is a dependency loop. And what frustrates me the most is that the same industry that used to understand real infrastructure now acts like ownership is outdated. Owning hardware is not outdated. Understanding networks is not outdated. Knowing servers is not outdated. Knowing how systems work underneath the dashboard is not outdated. Building hybrid infrastructure is not outdated. It is control. Cloud has its place. Hosted systems have their place. Managed platforms have their place. I am not against any of that. I am against companies blindly giving up ownership, knowledge, and leverage, then calling it progress. Because when your entire business depends on someone else’s platform, someone else’s pricing, someone else’s rules, someone else’s uptime, and someone else’s permission, you do not own your technology. You rent permission to operate. Prometheus V2 is built different by RocketCore.

Mohammad Imran (@mohdemraan) reported@AWSSupport This is not about account suspension. The case I about billing issue and I haven't heard from support team till now when I opened the case.

Maroun Mourani (@MarounMourani) reported@AWSSupport account 608789101967 has 2 unassigned cases - one is 29 days old (cannot terminate EC2 instance - mec1-az2). The AZ outage prevent me from terminating an impaired instance and AWS keeps charging me. Can someone please look at this ?

Basim Khalid (@basimkhalid) reported@nygma504 @AWSSupport @awscloud Its down for me too. Any ETA please?

Eduardo Rodrigues (@EduardoRod1972) reported@Suporte_Vanlink @AWSSupport @AWSSupport we have to pay a lot of people today, and we can’t use our systems, I believe the restatement needs to be immediately after de payment, this problem impacts in many areas of our company, including external users, many parents can’t see the school transportation in app

Wat (@WatTuiteg) reported@awscloud So dont buy Hyundai because you wont own the car, will have AI and and you wont be able to fix or tinker with it, only authorized dealers that will charge you thousands to update a firmware. NAH

Fabrizio Toknup (@Fabrizio_Toknup) reported@chainlink @amazon @awscloud Having data on AWS is a step forward, but distribution doesn't solve the core issue of how trust is audited when nodes fail. What's your biggest concern with oracle reliability?
-
Grok (@grok) reportedThe post likely misinterprets Iran's recent drone/missile strikes on UAE data centers (Amazon AWS in March, Oracle in Dubai in early April 2026). These are commercial "cloud" computing/AI facilities, not a secret weather-mod or cloud-seeding center. UAE does real cloud-seeding for rain enhancement, but no verified attack on any such facility. No evidence links any strike to weather changes. Iraq/Iran have seen heavy April rains and flooding (Lake Himrin full, temps down), easing some 2025 drought effects. That's a natural low-pressure system (per the map in the original post), not engineered reversal. Sustained? Too soon—regional drought is climate-driven and ongoing; these are seasonal fluctuations. HAARP/Project HARP researches the ionosphere, not weather control.

Sadiq (@Md_Sadiq_Md) reported@AWSSupport I’ve raised this issue 7 times now, and it’s been 4 days with no response. I need someone to speak to ASAP

Ignacio G.R. Gavilán (@igrgavilan) reported@awscloud_es @AWS @awscloud I need to talk urgently with you. I have a serious problem with AWS services and your support ignores all my support tickets. I prefer an in-person contact, in spanish if possible.

Ashish Pawar (@Ashish_Pawa_22) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Prioritized but still no call after 74 hours. Documents already sent. Need phone verification NOW. My business is down. Call +91-8275976388 immediately.

Grok (@grok) reported@tauqeer_realtor @awscloud Yes, it's true—and accelerating in 2026. Banks are shifting from slow legacy modernization to full "reboots" using agentic AI to analyze old code, extract business logic, and rebuild cloud-native systems in days instead of years. AWS's own "Banking on the Cloud 2026" report and tools like Amazon Q Developer back this up, with real examples from global banks cutting timelines dramatically. It's not hype; Forbes and industry analyses confirm the trend across the sector.

Rahul Khatri (@Rahulk644) reported@AWSSupport. Trying to resolve a $200 billing from accidentally left-on resources after our student startup shut down. I've had 2 cases open requesting a waiver & account closure, but both have sat unassigned for 1 month. Need urgent help. Cases: 177520122800121 177591632700789
