I’m a mid-30-something who has worked in all three as well as several of the “alt cloud” providers. Typically identified as Linode, DigitalOcean, Hetzner, sometimes Rackspace. I’ve used all of those and more.

People call me a graybeard for such things, but it’s never been said derisively or sarcastically to my face. Usually it’s asking for advice.
I took a “traditional” path here. I started when “the cloud” was just the fluffy white cloud that said “Internet” or “Other Networks” at the top of the diagram.
