> Staying on Azure is on the border of being considered a firing offense... If there was a competitor to AD that is. Right now developers and hn peeps have loads of options for their work, enterprises do not. I have Windows clients to authenticate, I need AD. I need forwards/ backwards compatibility on my clients, therefore I need Windows. I have applications that must run for several decades therefore I need Windows.

This is a bug in AAD, which is a very different thing than AD. There is some interoperability between them (ok more than some) but needing AD for legacy auth doesn’t necessarily mean you need AAD for Oauth.
