Paulo Quicoli 🇧🇷🇮🇪 (@pauloquicoli) reported from Oritor, Northern Ireland@AzureSupport @Azure I'm based in Europe and would like to try the Artifact Signature service as an individual, not as an Enterprise. Is there a way???
-
Victor (@victorpham2212) reportedSo Microsoft Azure platform decided to NOT let me in because it’s so sure that I am a bot. It’s just mind-blowing how terrible Microsoft has gotten, this is probably vibe-coded. @Azure , yall are shameful i aint gonna lie, absolutely ridiculous the kind of user experience yall created
-
Damian Figiel (@DamianCTO) reported@Azure just lost its most valuable competitive edge. @OpenAI officially ended its cloud exclusivity with Microsoft. Their models can now be deployed on any cloud provider, and AWS CEO @ajassy already confirmed GPT models are coming to Bedrock "in the coming weeks." This was always going to happen. You can't build a $150B AI company and let one vendor own your distribution channel forever. The 2019 Azure exclusivity deal made sense when OpenAI needed survival compute. In 2026, it was just dead weight. The real lesson is that single-cloud dependencies in AI were always a bad bet. Model access, GPU availability, data sovereignty, you want optionality in all three. Anyone who locked their AI stack to Azure assuming exclusivity would last is doing some uncomfortable math right now. Is your AI stack still locked to one cloud or are you already spreading the risk?

GREGGORY ADDISON (@CainGodTier) reported@Azure has the worst docs I’ve ever seen. Code examples? DONT WORK! Tips tell you to use a .NET version they don’t support anymore. Workflows from 1 year ago? DONT WORK! It’s actual torture. All because they are upselling a premium support package.
-
whoajack (@whoajack) reportedWho knew Azure was so expensive :P VM, cheap (like less than $20/month). Bastion host to connect to it, not cheap. LIke $150/month. Time to switch to AWS. WTF :P @Azure
-
Robert McLaws (@robertmclaws) reported@Azure @shanselman This sounds cool and I’m interested in seeing it. Having said that… AI should never have direct access to the database. There must be at least one intermediate layer that enforces business-level data security through standard APIs + OAuth. Otherwise you are exposing your data to AI vulnerabilities, exploits, and hallucinations.

Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reportedjust paid $100 for the @Azure support plan just to have an underpaid offshore person tell me that there is no other way of filling a manual form for EVERY goddamn model to lift limits for a new account

-
kishor joshi (@kishorj007) reported@Azure Team, Please help in cancelling my azure subscription. Even after multiple followup it’s not resolved in more than 3 months. It’s really painful to follow up everyday and team responds with same generic message after 3-4 days without accountability. Case- 2511040040000523
-
Ganesh Behera (@ghbdigital) reportedVery disappointed with @Azure support. A subscription was disabled over “suspicious activity” with no clear explanation, causing our beta app to go down and creating serious business risk. Startups cannot operate on vague flags and delayed resolution. #Azure #Microsoft #Startup
-
Ashish (@AI_geek01) reportedMicrosoft azure account having suspicious installing jason files in chat playground leading to excessive billing and still continuing. My reseller seems clueless. Please help asap. @Microsoft @Azure
-
Renzo Canepa (@rcanepag) reported@Azure Every generation request takes so long that the service is unusable. Even 1024x1024 images can take more than 5 minutes to complete.

Florian Bador (@florianbador) reported@Azure : Remove this insanity of #AuthenticatorApp! I created a new biz account for some emailing, put the debit card, then the login forces to setup that stupid app, but I don't own a smartphone (and won't borrow anyone's). I tried to call support but got disconnected, calling again leads nowhere. At this point I could not even cancel the membership because I cannot login... Madness! Just let the customer decides what they want as 2FA!!! They know better, you control-freaks. So what am I supposed to do at this point? Cannot login, cannot setup auth app, cannot even cancel because cannot login, cannot open a case online because cannot login, and no "Use another way" option to skip this silly Auth-App setup, and no Desktop App either since I run exclusively on Linux.... Why so complicated??? Keep It Simple Stupid. @Microsoft @Outlook
-
zoomies.llamafile (@snappercayt) reported@dotMorten So nuget is like default playstore dev version thing? @Azure must support it by default for any VMs shouldn't it? @azureadvocates
-
ThePunKing (@The_PunKing) reported@Azure making shift-enter run queries is the most dangerous thing in the world. Holy crap! DELETE FROM <enter> students <shift+enter> WHERE <enter> id = 327 Sincerly, Someone who is thankful he is only selecting in this azure interface
-
DevOps Guy (@riyajaix) reported@takuya_tominaga Thank you for highlighting hard on various platform. I was wondering who will be next in this! This is absolutely pathetic from @Azure that they are simply not ready to fix this.
-
Jon Olson (@jonolson_) reported@Azure "This specific error actually isn't an Azure Batch configuration problem or a permissions issue—it is a hardware architecture mismatch." (oops this was my fault for building a docker image on Mac m4 and targeting x86)
-
Aditya Chand (@adiityack) reported@Azure is down
-
Ryuk 🇧🇷🇺🇲 (@Ryuk8567464467) reported@Azure Microslop, so slop. Windows Slop, Azure Slop. Maybe is not slop, just bad.
-
Flexsin Inc. (@Flexsin) reported@Azure Confidential Computing was built for this exact problem. Your data stays encrypted while it's being processed – locked inside hardware-level trusted environments. The cloud provider can't see it. The host OS can't see it. Nobody can. Overhead: under 8% #MicrosoftAzure

Vishal (@Vishhallu) reportedAnna University’s result server has been down for 16 hours straight Millions of students vs one sad little server. Maybe it’s time for an intervention? @AWSCloudIndia @Azure @digitalocean
-
Guy Leech (@guyrleech) reportedOne of the vendors we use who hook into @Azure @Microsoft365 are reporting that error 503 is being returned and @Microsoft have confirmed that there is a problem
-
Tom Sella (@tsella) reportedmicrosoft @Azure is the worst developer experience i've ever seen. from the tenant deletion (no recourse) to expired tokens, its like they are trying to keep people away from using it.
-
Robert Harju (@RobertHarju) reportedBe careful with anything @Microsoft /@Azure related. They used a card that’s linked to my sons XBox to charge a service that I’ve attempted to cancel multiple times. Apparently they’re able to pull card information across platforms? Pretty shady if you ask me.
