@zachleat Agreed on the Vercel higher vCPU is not needed unless you're memory constrained. For a passive screenshot tool, time is not a problem. I've had to use the performance vCPU for applications where puppeteer was running on a user action. (gist.github.com/kettanaito/568)

Vercel is super easy to setup. AWS is at the opposite. I just hope sometihng like Coolify, but more-serverless focused comes about.

@chris_hayes yes! I’ve been looking into some things that help with AWS deployment too (e.g. arc.codes or serverless.com)

@mariohamann @chris_hayes I usually don’t promise blog posts because the second I promise a post I lose all motivation to write it 😅
