I just deployed to Rill cloud backed by Motherduck and it worked great— wonderful experience...    In-browser CLI auth with Rill Cloud, added my Motherduck token, invited some viewers, I'm live. Took 3 minutes.

Because, I don't have enough time on my hands, I created a DuckDB extension that allows you to import data by scanning an Athena table. https://github.com/dacort/duckdb-athena-extension
