-
逢坂隆也 Zac (@zach_coredump) reported@MSCloud @Microsoft When could you guys fix this issue? Anyone with email only is able to request login process.
-
Robot Person (Misogynousos Oreo) (@RobotPerson78) reported@Azure Your products are terrible
-
Simon Holman (@SimonHolman) reported@Azure Having alerts on admin user logins that trigger 5-8 hours after an event is not ideal. We’re seeing SignIn logs take that long to make their way into Log Analytics.
-
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.
-
Trader TJM (@Trader_TJM) reportedHaving to wade through bullshit to submit a problem on @Azure and just get hit with AI slop support. How on earth do you speak to a human to report an issue?
-
Veer Shrivastav (@srivastaveer) reportedThere is absolutely no way to create a ticket on Azure Support even after taking $100 support plan. It's P0 issue our systems are down and there are so many unnecessary forms. @MicrosoftIndia @Microsoft @Azure We need immediate help.
-
The President of Earth ☀️ (@ProftranDotCom) reported@benshapiro @Azure Poor recent Boeing products, poor reliability recent cars and pickup trucks correlate with the adoption of MS @Azure and exponential growth of MSFT. Does this make sense?
-
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
-
Madan Chaolla Park (MCP) (@mcpark) reportedso frustrated with how few people integrate @Azure into cool tools... I did the goose azure openai and anthropic integrations, and the integrations in almost every tool I use... WTF why don't people make the azure integration everywhere???? AM I THE ONLY GUY WITH azure credits?
-
Coastal Computer Systems Inc. (@CoastalCompSys) reportedAI experiments are one thing. Running them at scale is another. Check out how Wrtn uses @Azure OpenAI Service and the new o1 model:

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
-
lolipopp (@lovisapnew) reported@Azure COPILOT IN AZURE IS USELESS AS HELL, IT DOESN’T SOLVE ****. IT FEELS LIKE AN AI MADE BY A 12-YEAR-OLD. If you offer Azure for Students, why the hell don’t the regions allow you to create free virtual machines? What the hell are those services even for?? screw all of you.

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?

oesnada (@oesnadaki) reportedThe European Commission is moving to designate @awscloud and @Azure as gatekeepers under the Digital Markets Act, a shift that signals the end of the unregulated era for cloud infrastructure. By forcing these platforms to adopt strict interoperability and data portability standards, the EU aims to dismantle the technical and contractual lock-in that has long defined the enterprise cloud market. This regulatory expansion means $AMZN and Microsoft will likely be forced to overhaul how they bundle services and manage customer transitions to competitors. The upcoming preliminary finding marks a significant escalation in antitrust pressure on $MSFT and the broader cloud sector.

Anne Durgueil (@AnneDurgueil) reported@MSCloud assuming you guys handle Windows365 which is cloud based (and whose principles I love), you may consider using what we called a "transaction processor" although frankly it is very hard these days to find a description that fits what I knew of them when I started coding on IBM mainframes in my teens in the 70s. I'm only saying that because the executables' images these days are so huge and full of useless code you'll fast have huge memory management issues, the same we used to have on our mainframes back in time as we squeezed our code in a few kilobytes. The word transaction processor comes from the fact we mostly coded for banks and insurance companies, where one performed transactions before computing turned up, so it doesn't tell you why it's so great, nor how it works: Despite the fact we had thousands of online users for one tiny computer, there was only one executable image contiguously loaded in memory (maybe two). Each user had a session but all that was kept for each session in resident memory was only the data it used, and the adress (the position) of the next instruction to execute in the executable image for that session. And the beauty of that in a multithreading environment, is that it happens automatically without overbearing thread management. To be honest we coders never had to bother about it all, and Cobol as a programing language was well geared to such a use: working storage was defined before the executable code using those data definitions was lined up, unlike Basic for instance where you could define fields as you went, but where professionals defined them up with comments at the top of the program. (I suppose this can be reshuffled at compilation stage.. yes sorry you need to compile). I Guess object orientation that came a little bit later will fit very well in that framework. We used IMS and CICS on IBM, and ACMS on DEC VAX/VMS.

Decent Cloud (@DecentCloud_org) reported@Azure @ghbdigital @AzureSupport Official account: redirect to support. Support: open a ticket. Problem: still yours.
-
onion spice latte 🧅 (@AQuickAlias) reportedOur client has been completely locked out of M365 @Azure for two weeks and @AzureSupport is a total joke. The official rec we received from an MS support rep was to just keep opening tickets and pray that someone responds. Case 2605190040004147 if you all actually want to fix it.

*GodsAngel* (@McAfeeKevin) reported@Azure fix your outage please so I can play smite

Prem (@premsha2301) reported@Azure Do u have any idea to solve my issue
-
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
-
dayma (@blackride) reported@Azure your support request capability in Azure is a disaster. The drop downs don't help and never actually lets me open a ticket.....
-
Syed Sameer (@syedsameer2024) reported@AzureSupport @Azure We joined for startup support, but unexpected charges we thought Azure credits covered put us at risk of suspension. We’re unable to pay now and request a review of these charges plus an extension or relief. We value long-term partnership. #Azure #Startups
-
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.
-
Kodeus (@TheKodeusLabs) reported@NVIDIADC @Azure Infra is scaling fast to bring agents into production, but infrastructure alone doesn’t solve the core problem running agents is one thing, trusting their execution is another.

ちゅうこ / 合瀬 奏 (@y_chu5) reported@Azure Hi, the repositories azure/azure-functions-docker and azure-functions-durable-js and more... have been disabled on GitHub for violating the terms of service. Was there a problem? I was just forking it, so I was surprised to receive an email from GitHub.

Chris Gates (@chrisgatesjr) reported@weezerOSINT Now imagine how much big companies pay for defender for business or e3 and e5 just to have the thing they pay for help hackers deliver the virus LMAO @Microsoft @Azure fix your ****
