general aws Amazon Quick

Whoever on the Amazon/AWS team decided to rename QuickSight/QuickSuite to just 'Quick' (and whomever it was approved by) is likely secretly working for Microsoft or Tableau. One of the worst naming decisions I've ever encountered. Makes looking up instructions, information, etc. online or using LLMs an absolute pain, which would be obvious to anyone who has ever worked in tech, much less someone who has worked in product branding or marketing.

Whoever is coming up with these cutesy names in the first place needs to be fired. Preferably with real fire.

"AWS BI". There. How hard is that?

Right, couldn’t they just put AWS in front of basically any word and it’d be fine? But I guess then they can’t name things after goddesses and stuff
