I think the same of AWS. There are alternatives out there, especially for small personal projects.

I use Digital Ocean and couldn't be happier. The bill is small, and it's refreshingly simple to host a container.

I still have battle scars from trying to set up AWS Fargate. It's just a hodge podge of corporately requested features at this point.

Starting when?

Windows 1.0, I believe. Xerox PARC invented the WIMP UI paradigm (windows, icons, menus, pointer), Apple commercialised it first, and then Microsoft copied Apple.
