Interesting post. I'm a Linux guy but i'm in a new job so having to ramp up on Azure DevOps. Looked good at first, I actually praised Microsoft but: 1. Creating a project timed out after 5 minutes or so. This was in the gui, but had no adblocker or anything similar. Refreshed page = no project. 2. Went to a different machine, logged in, no project still. 3. Went to original machine - refreshed - no project. Logged out and back in again - project was there. Azure DevOps was awesome at first but I can not trust something like this when I work with it all day.

I refuse to work with Azure because of issues like this.

  I don't have a choice unfortunately. BTW never had a problem bringing up an instance quickly on GC. AWS sometimes just sat there for a while, depending on the instance type and region. Azure just stops because it feels like it. I'm sure GC isn't any better than the other two, it's just less utilised. The UI is my biggest issue. Yes, we don't depend on it because we all script our stuff. But after spending an hour fapping at an SSH terminal it's nice to look at the UI and see stuff happen. Azure is the worst at this, with AWS a close second. That reminded me of my favourite bug with AWS UI / Container Registry - you can order the list of container images any way you like, but it'll only order those it's loaded. So i'm looking for a new image called 'zzzzz' but it'll never appear, I need to search for it. Did anybody involved ever use this?

I've had similar experiences. Can't recall a similar issue with AWS, ever. And those panes needing horizontal scrolling: wat?
