MS/Azure just seems to have this weird obsession with Not-Invented-Here-ing things that didn’t need to be nih-ed, and their solutions are often…extraordinarily Microsoft.

“Use our weird language, to interact with our awful, slow API’s, nobody else uses it, our support probably doesn’t know it exists, and it’ll be full of weird, MS culture specific idioms and eldritch code that compiles down into our previous failed experiment”

Like, no? No thank you, can’t you just be normal?

Do they support ed25519 ssh keys yet? Just hard to take 'em seriously.

As if other cloud offerings were any different in behaviour and tooling.

Azure is straight up full of fucking clowns.

This is not a serious platform: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/azure/virtual...

Can you begin to imagine how fucked up Compute is internally that this shit remains true for 6+ years? VMSS was an entire nightmare that someone tried to point out was a mistake that AWS and GCP brilliantly avoided. Sure enough, now the product is confusing and even further internally fractured by supporting both deployment models.

Sorry, having been on the inside of a couple places and a user of all of them, Azure comes in last place every single time.
