Love the look of the website and the tools, it is worth a try!
I'm using AWS and AppSync (The service for GraphQL) directly and managing infrastructure (other services) with AWS CDK.
I'm encouraging everyone to try AWS directly. The learning curve is a bit steeper but there will be no lock-in to a single service.
Now more and more services are offering a way to run serverless apps: Netlify, Zeit, 8base. It's nice and convenient, but knowing the source will let you design apps with proper security considerations.
The way I think of these things is always that the more tools you have in the tool-chest, the more things you can build. It's NEVER wrong to learn more or dive deeper. But just because you might know-how and be capable of building a house by sawing down your own lumber and smithing your own nails, doesn't mean you wouldn't want to order some parts pre-fab - or at least go to the hardware store!
Yes, we understand there is somewhat of a trade-off. At 8base, we have tried very hard to use only standards while also delivering the benefit of a flexible, pre-built infrastructure.
I've had my twitter account for 10 years

and then one day I decided to follow a few people from an article I've read all at once.
Then twitter blocked by account and removed all my followers. Have no ability to DM them either.
I filed complaints but no response
I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I hope that you are someday able to get your account back. If that is truly the reason your account was suspended, that just isn't right.
If I make any headway with my case and I am able to forward you contact info I will happily do so.
