#2I have no idea why anyone would use Cognito unless they don’t care about availability.
Almost every other SaaS vendor supports multi-region active-active and Cognito does not.

#3They increased prices, but looks like they finally are revamping the service. This is probably the biggest update in years.

#6I think the author is confused. The previous "basic tier" is actually the "lite" tier. The prices are the same, but the number of "free" MAUs is reduced. The "advanced" and "essentials" tier include what seems to be new or expanded features like fully customizable logins and passwordless login options, so you have to pay more to access these features, but it looks like everything Cognito previously provided is in the "lite" tier.

#10There are so many better Auth providers out there now - and some of them are free for the first 10k or so users (workOs has the first 1M users free!)
