Not like their systems never have downtime.

Um, akshually it's a DNS issue not a router issue.
I think.
It looks like a router issue. But it's always a DNS issue

lol yeah I definitely have more downtime than AWS.

The main differences are:

I usually control when that downtime is.
I can inform literally every single person that uses it exactly what is down, why, and approximately for how long.

The difference is I can do something about my downtime and fix it.
