Silksteele (@silksteele) reported@adamKDean @awscloud Pshhhh! That's a rounding error against your consulting fees and contract work. I'm surprised you even noticed.

Priyanshu (@iproductAI) reportedI requested @awscloud to increase my Opus 4.6 V1 limit and I’ve been chatting with the AWS support team for almost 4-5 days now. They’re telling me this. Is @awscloud a government company? I mean, you guys can’t just pass the problem from one department to another. I mean, WTF? Now I have to raise my query again to sales? Why can’t you just pass this query? You already have more context about what the issue is. I can’t believe how these big MNCs are working these days. Totally absurd service from @awscloud. One more thing, please educate your support. I mean, she didn’t even know what the TPD limit is in the service quota. She literally replied the first time saying there’s only a TPM limit and no separate TPD limit.

GettingMyGlitchOff (@GettingMyGlitch) reported@AWSSupport Again there is a mass wave of suspensions like in May, I'm assuming in error as I've been on this platform for over 10 years and this seems to be happening more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time so any updates on this situation?

Priyanshu (@iproductAI) reportedHere’s the cleaned-up version with fixed grammar, same hard tone, and no em dashes: I requested @awscloud to increase my Opus 4.6 V1 limit and I’ve been chatting with the AWS support team for almost 4-5 days now. They’re telling me this. Is @awscloud a government company? I mean, you guys can’t just pass the problem from one department to another. I mean, WTF? Now I have to raise my query again to sales?

GiveHateAChance (@HelpingHate) reported@awscloud It's cute how the ***** indians who caused all of this are never at fault and how you dismiss what a huge error this was with an emoji.

Aaryan Bansal (@NotUnHackable) reported@awscloud that issue was happening since yesterday dude. why tf did it take so much time?
-
Erin (@erinEncoded) reported@AWSSupport No follow up email sent to users to let us know not to panic after we got threshold emails. I was sick this morning and lost hours of productivity. Terrible, truly terrible, customer service. As soon as I see my account go back to 0, I’m moving to Azure.

🔥 PHOENIXX🔥 (@AIPulse0) reportedAMAZON AWS PAYS $127K/MO FOR CLOUD COMPUTING. SERGEY BOUGHT CHEAP SERVER RACK + CLAUDE AI. MAKES $318K Pause at 0:11 — rack with 40+ servers. Every indicator glows green. This is local computing. Zero latency. Zero cloud bills. Sergey, 35, Ukraine. Was AWS architect, $7,200/month. Understands: companies pay Amazon millions, but they can do same calculations locally. Bought used server rack for $4,800. Installed Claude AI for local processing. 78 companies pay $4,077/month each instead of $12K on AWS. Amazon offered $4,200,000. Sergey said: "You profit from dependency. I profit from freedom." Why — in video.

Payal (@payal_codes) reportedDay 1 : "How to Scale an App to 10 Million Users on AWS" If I have to design a system for 10 million users, I won't build everything on Day 1 because it will add unnecessary complexity and cost. I'll start simple with one application server and one database. As traffic grows, if the server starts reaching its CPU, memory, or storage limits, I'll first scale vertically by moving to a bigger instance. Once that is not enough, I'll separate the backend and database so both can scale independently. To avoid a single point of failure, I'll deploy the application across multiple Availability Zones and put a Load Balancer in front so if one server or AZ goes down, traffic is automatically routed to healthy servers. As the number of users keeps increasing, I'll make my application stateless by storing sessions in Redis. This allows me to add multiple application servers behind the Load Balancer and scale horizontally. If my database starts getting overloaded with reads, I'll use Redis to cache frequently accessed data and add read replicas to distribute read traffic. For static assets like images, CSS, and JavaScript, I'll store them in Amazon S3 and serve them through CloudFront so requests don't keep hitting my application servers. If traffic suddenly spikes during sales or events, I'll enable Auto Scaling with CloudWatch metrics so AWS automatically adds or removes servers based on demand. As the application becomes larger, I'll split the monolith into microservices. This allows each service, like authentication, payments, or notifications, to scale independently instead of scaling the entire application. If the database becomes the bottleneck, especially for write operations, I'll use sharding or federation depending on the data and business requirements. Finally, when users are spread across the world, I'll deploy the application in multiple AWS Regions to reduce latency and improve availability. My approach is always the same: find the bottleneck, solve that bottleneck, and only introduce more complexity when the current architecture can no longer handle the traffic.

lak-alak (@baricadelane) reported@IanCarrollShow @BacklotOPS @NickJFreitas They must think we are stupid Tyler Robinson decoys all over the place d captured on camera all doing their part for 1990s pixalated images produced and sold as 4k in 2026 lmao. Why did Amazon aws services shut down 9/10 - 9/25? Who owns discord?

Mike Webb (@themikebwebb) reported@awscloud You should be the first cloud provider to issue a billing usage reset.

Sai Manikanta ☕ (@rebuiltWithSai) reportedDay 19 of #JobSwitchUntilPlaced 🚀 Today's progress: ✅ Started a new Microservices project by building the User Service ✅ Solved 2 DSA problems ✅ Learned about Blob Storage (Amazon S3) One step closer to building production-ready, scalable backend systems.💪 #BuildInPublic

riffy (@riffydays) reportedToday, a rare break outside ended when a $90B bill hit my inbox and sent me rushing back I learned it was a bug from AWS Support on X—but finding out this way is a problem. If the bill came by email, why not the notice? Premium pricing. Anything-but-premium service @AWSSupport

RickDavis404 (@RickDavis404) reported@awscloud I left an EKS cluster running while waiting for my Fable 5 limit to reset...only been a few days, but Opus says my aws bill was pretty accurate, just a small rounding error, still over 950 trillion dollars 🤑
-
Gopal Goti (@gopal_goti) reported@AWSSupport @AWSSupport Thank you for the update, but 'high volume' cannot justify a support case sitting completely 'Unassigned' for over 4 days for a basic account verification issue. This is not a complex technical issue. it is a backend system error on the AWS verification form.
-
AntDracula (@ant_dracula) reported@kankerhoerrrrrr @marcelocantos @awscloud And you had no response for "what's the alternative to shutting down services, just pay the bill?" Maybe you really are an AI bot instead of a retard.

D (@D8118199174282) reported@awscloud No, you still haven’t compensated users for the cost bug error
-
J Bret Edwards (@jbecompslns) reporteddid @AWSSupport lay off all the accounts and billing people or are they all just swamped from all those insane billing estimate cases from last week? I don't remember the wait times being this bad when I was still working at AWS a few years ago. It's kind of surreal being on the other side of the fence, knowing exactly what needs to be done to resolve the issue, but then having to wait to get someone to actually look at the case. I think they laid off too many people. This is going to come back to bite them in the medium to long term.

metis (@metis00001) reportedI can't understand why AWS has not been able to resolve my issue of payment method. Whatever credit card I put, they are not able to verify it and they keep asking me to call the card issuer. It's not card issuer issue! @awscloud

Matthew Joughin | 🏗️ Cross Platform Dev Tools (@mrwcjoughin) reported@ivanburazin Why are you still using windows server ? It’s less than 10 minutes to fire up a @awscloud ECS cluster running free Linux

Felipe Rojas (@FipeRojas) reported@AWSSupport as root admin of a management account in Chile, your system failed to issue our statutory VAT invoice despite our tax settings were configurated according to your mails and RUT verified since june 2. Already 4 open cases without answer. ID 178524912400362

metis (@metis00001) reported@AWSSupport Looks like it has been resolved. But it definitely took like 5 days to resolve a payment configuration issue! Thanks for reaching out.

Nachman Mostofsky ✡︎🇺🇸 (@Mostofsky) reported@awscloud I signed up w/ new account to get @AWS_Gov. Got usual error. Created ticket. At about 3pm. Just got my phone call. At 11:30. AT NIGHT! To then get a message while on hold that there was an error, that a tech was assigned to case & would call me back. C'mon!
-
Drate Berry (@drateberry) reportedIs anyone else experiencing issues with the @awscloud Billing system? I’m trying to add a new card and both the physical and virtual versions are throwing a verification issue. Bank is saying they don’t see anything on their end. Waiting to hear back from AWS Support.

Jack Stone (@c0XhHxvylL) reported@AWSSupport be honest, how much of this problem was due to ai and/or vibecoding

Certified AI Dev (@MisterPrashant) reportedThis solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using your content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

jd42 (@jdonovan42) reported@DarioCpx Pls recalculate considering the massive clouds the AI revs sit on. Each $1 in AI attaches $1.5-2.5X attached cloud biz and your down to 30-45% of revs. Then as open wgt models gain apply the 100% revenue retention vs. 60% on frontier and look at EBITDA % from frontier is 10-15% max. But nice try ;) No doubt Anthropic and OpenAI both stimulate demand for Amazon AWS. It creates 2x the cloud biz than it does the direct AI biz. So why not count the full picture of things vs just the #'s that fit one narrative.
