Alvaro Villalba (@alvarovillalbap) reported@philipkung @awscloud @amazon Technical support has being helpful historically for me (with smaller problems than yours) But it did cost us a lot of $$$ for something I feel should be included Did they charge for your technical support?
-
ErinE (@WhoaNowNelly) reported@DRiceHockey @WNBA @awscloud Same applies to all their stats. Their PRA is gonna go down too. That's the nature of injuries. Makes it harder for the individual, but does not increase the difficulty of the actual shot itself.
-
Brian Porter (@kbporter) reported@amazon @awscloud @AmazonHelp why do I have to continually contact you on social media for issues with your service? Why is your customer service online “help” so bad? $5 credits for delayed orders for a service we pay for is horrible!
-
Keith Townsend (@CTOAdvisor) reportedI spent over $120 in @awscloud so far this month. Most of it has been on GPU instances and Xeon 6. This is the most I've spent since I've had a long-running VM as a web app server a few years ago.
-
M (@mdw864) reported@AWSSupport Five months of broken links & blocked support channels is unacceptable. You have more cut off core business services because you have refused to provide a person with disabilities a way to tell you that you are over billing me. Escalate to a senior rep to fix this before 9am cst

Gabriel (@doktorgphd) reported@awscloud wow really??? i had to search x for the reason?? not even an email?? I saw the email sent yesterday about the cost alert and I spend the last hour trying to work out what is going on because it looks very legit and I only find out it was an error on x! Just had to send an email!!
-
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 happen more frequently. Emails from mturk-noreply havent worked in a long time,any updates on this situation @amazonmturk

Joy | 🔥 (@JoyKingdomx) reportedAs we all know, cloud outages are not a new topic here. But what is changed is how many products now depend on the same infrastructure. A few years ago, an AWS outage mostly affected AWS customers. Where today one infrastructure issue can ripple across AI apps, APIs, developer tools, streaming platforms and payment services. That is the downside of concentration. We have seen @awscloud outages impact millions. We have also seen @OpenAI outages pause production apps because entire inference pipelines depended on a single provider. It is not the outage that matters - it is the dependency behind it. That is the reason why decentralized compute makes sense. Instead of relying on a single cloud or region, @ionet distributes compute across a global network of GPUs in 138+ countries. No infrastructure is immune to failure, the goal is to ensure one failure does not become everyone's failure.

Anjishnu Ganguly (@Anjishnu46) reported@AWSSupport @awscloud, please don't reply again just to say this was shared internally. Assign someone who can actually look at the account, explain what's blocking it, and fix it.

Param (@Param_eth) reportedThe downfall of Storj Labs (bankruptcy): - launches Storj in 2014 to build a decentralised alternative to cloud storage - promises a blockchain based competitor to Amazon S3. - attracts thousands of node operators across the world - raises around $35 million in funding - secures roughly $30 million through its 2017 token sale - spends years building its decentralised storage network - the DePIN business model proves difficult to scale profitably 2021: - $STORJ reaches its all time high 2022–2025: - the token enters a prolonged decline - node operators report declining rewards and operational issues - Storj begins selling non-core assets and right sizing operations October 2025: - Inveniam Capital Partners acquires Storj Labs - the acquisition is expected to strengthen the company's future - financial pressures remain unresolved July 2026: - Storj Labs files for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection - the company says legacy liabilities can no longer be outgrown - assets and liabilities are estimated between $1 million and $10 million > operations > customer services > the storage network continue running - Inveniam backs the restructuring process - Storj proposes a plan that could give STORJ token holders equity in the reorganised company - $STORJ falls another 14–15% after the bankruptcy announcement - the token is down roughly 99% from its 2021 all time high

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?

Master of Controversy (@THe0GAmer) reported@Pirat_Nation Amazon aws outage knocked psn offline for 8 hours while sony pushes an all digital future fans could not launch their purchased games

@Randomfrequency@mastodon.social (@randomfrequency) reported@QuinnyPig @awscloud There is only an A, B, and C zone and never shall we acknowledge the existence of any other ones. // Being part of the problem since 20XX

Ondřej Flídr (@snipercze) reportedHello @AWSSupport, is there any problem with EBS subsystem in us-east-2 (Ohio region)? Cannot resize volume (ending with internal error, same for console and CloudFormation), new volume is created but stuck in "Attaching" to the EC2. Thanks for check

❤️🔥ViBe GuY_PrinCe😉 (@777PrinceFreaky) reportedAmazon has very poor service in Warranty and Claim Procedure To Customer fix this for me soon @amazonIN @awscloud @AmazonHelp

mark seery (@140ismymax) reportedPeter DeSantis talking at #agenticaisummit There will NOT be one AI chip type. If multiple AI chips take multiple years to bring to market, you have to be making assumptions about model requirements in that time frame. It's a systems problem, including the network. Constraint drives innovation. Future is bright and built together. Peter DeSantis SVP, Foundational AI Models, Custom Silicon, Quantum Computing, Amazon @awscloud @amazon @BerkeleyRDI #AI
-
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.

Ivan Toma (@FounderRAVERK) reported@awscloud @Google @Microsoft The water problem is only going to get bigger. We already have technology that can help data centers produce their own cooling water from the sea. Let’s solve this together.
-
Prateek Gupta (@p_valuee) reported@AWSSupport My entire production is down since 3 days, I believe this is a P1 and should be treated like one @AWSSupport. Please help me with an ETA
-
Ayush Awasthi (@Ayush_awa) reported@AWSSupport Its the third day today. The only mail I received from aws was all about “We are getting someone to investigate this” Since then I havent received any update. My only issue is that these things are time sensitive and you cant just take days after days with no real status updates
-
Harun R. (@harundotdev) reported2. The obvious fix: split responsibility. Metadata stays in a database like Postgres. The actual file goes to object storage, Amazon S3 being the standard example. Better. Still not the full fix.
-
BOB-DO-THEM (@osangesua) reportedThis is a blatant lie intended to mislead the electorate. The glitch synchronisation in the BVAS is the reason he won't effect the upgrade because if an upgrade is carried on the BVAS, the entire calibration of glitches will disappear and the fear that @awscloud may have disabled or blocked the application that allows them to manipulate the BVAS is the reason for this unprovoked lies
-
Meo Meo (@CastleEL88) reported@awscloud Focus on AI features instead of server maintenance. .

The AI Therapist (@TheAIShrink) reported@MikeLongTerm @amazon @awscloud EC2 on AMD CPUs. The cloud bill goes down, the margins go up. aws is quietly fixing its cost structure while everyone watches the models. smart

Pixi Dust (@Bethco2257) reported@FmrRepMTG @amazon @awscloud walk into any Amazon office building at Seattle HQ and South Lake Union Amazon Seattle offices and instantly you can see with your own eyes… nearly 80% of staff are HB1 visa holders!!!! So yes, we have a big problem.

D (@D8118199174282) reported@awscloud No, you still haven’t compensated users for the cost bug error

TeeBeeCTO (@TeeBeeCTO) reportedSetting up a new AWS account @awscloud … and get non stop errors on set up. Looks like their vibe coding dystopia worked… were all going to die because SkyNet will have error pages that end up giving us all death by error page. Amazing work… @JeffBezos !!
