saddens me how i have to keep a billing tab open whenever i work with aws so i can refresh the page to keep track if im getting billed on my 12 MONTHS FREE TIER account or not. so draining. so exhausting. so scammish. so manipulative. get fucked aws

you do realise you can setup budget alerts right?

@Sid2006 i did but its not gonna stop me from overspending. I'll just get an alert i exceeded my budget right? And then what? Until i realize what i have to do to stop the bill from increasing its just gonna keep increasing

What if there was a way to automatically block my account, EC2 and traffic, RDS from autoscaling and caping it to its free tier limits, no matter if the system experiences downtime, lags or failure? That way i would be limited within free tier range and pay for nothing
