Everyone's Kepner-Tregoe Decision Analysis weights requirements differently, and convenience is a powerful requirement for many people. Performance is for others.Say what you will about how awful shared hosting is, but the one-click installer of Wordpress et al has proven that a market exists where people are happy to pay to host things in the most convenient manner possible. Of course, in a more technical community, performance is part of a factor.

In my experience, pride plays heavily into the devaluing of convenience. For every abstraction and or simplification there are people who put it somewhere on a scale from wasteful to cheating.You don't even have to dig very far into these discussions to find the guys who don't abide hosting at all. They can't fathom why everyone doesn't build their own bespoke hardware and string together their own orchestration.

This post sounds like an excuse for poor performance in favour of convenience.The better question is, why can't you have both?

The problem with AWS is that it's neither fast nor particularly convenient or user-friendly.

So it's hosted on AWS, which you admit rules out performance. It's shared, and has heavy arbitrary limits on resource usage, so that rules out convenience.
