What are you basing this on, exactly?

Windows has only gotten shittier, Azure is a fucking joke, Office 365 leaks like a sieve. Just about everything MS has touched in the last two decades has been abject garbage. WSL is a tragedy. Teams???

What has MS done that's been praise worthy? I don't get it.

IMO they're still awkward and cludgy as ever, but less imperialistic. Maybe its just harder to corner all the markets these days.

What is wrong with Azure?

I’m a software developer in the UK and we use Azure and my manager (the owner) and a much smarter engineer than me, is incredibly happy with Azure, much more than AWS or GCP.
