I don't have a comparison but Hetzner is pretty much unbeatable in price if you can live with having your servers in Europe. If not, OVH, DigitalOcean, Linote or Vultr are good alternatives with datacenters around the globe and prices below that of AWS.

Sure they're below AWS, but if you compare lightsail, they're pretty much identical.

I know that hetzner is affordable, but is digital ocean really cheaper than AWS?


That would largely depend on your usecase.
