I have noticed something along these lines in the GitHub repos. Tons of bugs piling up, issues closed out as "by design" where clearly is was not. Etc.

I honestly get the impression Azure is in decline, particularly around the .Net integrations which is their flagship ecosystem..

I don't necessarily share this impression, but the teams that simply close items after being unable to sufficiently develop a solution, leading to the original issue raiser giving up after realizing that those who are supporting the issues are useless, are not helping with the public's impression of azure.
It's a culture issue. The culture of the teams they are.. Offshoring ownership of these projects to.

A lot goes into company and team culture, but I'm sure a lot here are familiar with the dynamics of outsourced development; offshore or not. Blame seeking, blame shifting, CYA, etc.. "by design"..

It's all on full display in Microsofts Azure GitHub repos.

It's a matter of culture in outsourcing.

I'm a CTO in Mexico and outsource to companies in Mexico (insource modality) and it is evident outsourcing people don't give a danm about the product . Why should they? They get paid by the hour, and if the client goes bust after they are paid, another will bite.
