More good news: There are lots of simpler hosts that are more deserving of your money than Jeff Bezos.
Name and shame. I'd love go start a new home project without bezobucks limiting what I can afford.
Depends on your region and use-cases.
As fellow german I luckily have an answer for smaller projects, where my non-techy mother-in-law hosts her own business wordpress since years without any issues. It's just a simple webhoster with ssh-login.

Best thing: it's pay-what-you-want. My first projects were 1€/mo because i was broke; nowadays I voluntary pay a bit more.
I’ve been with digital ocean for more years than I can remember. I love Digital Ocean. Their core product is great, great UI, API, and their new products have been great as well. I’m using their K8s managed install for a year or so now on a product with no issues.
I believe they have 1 click installs for Wordpresss.
Here’s a referral code for $200 over 2 months if anyone wants to try it:

I adore DO. They offer so many good products beyond VMs these days. Their K8s is cheap and their AppEngine stuff is like baby FarGate, sort of. They even offer server less as well. S3, RDS, NLBs, it's all there 😎
Hetzner has €2/m webhost plan with Wordpress installer
Like Azure? :p
