I'll be getting downvoted for it but imho Ms never really cared about creating good software products and has been shoveling (at best) mediocrity through their wildly successful sales channels and through developing a stranglehold on public institutions (vendor lock-in). Azure is just another angle.
They cared when they had real competition. That was a long time ago.
Oh now I get what you meant.
Businessmen as well as politicians are not interested in quality, it's just sales numbers and reelection.
I know, but C# is quickly turning into my favorite socially acceptable back end language; and Visual Code is a decent editor, with awesome integrations, another winner.
Fucks sake.
At least Windows is quickly turning into exactly the kind of dumpster fire I would expect.
