Start ups that choose things like Azure are a red flag for me. Churn is really problematic. Learning a code base by having to poke and grok takes a lot longer than being able to fire off a few questions.

Not sure why Azure matters in terms of infra (it's... fine) but if it means dealing with MS Teams that's a big negative.

I don't understand why Europe loves MS so much. Teams as far as the eye can see....

yeah azure has come a long way since 2016. id say it has devex ~amazon, better than gcp. but to his point the startup picking azure is a bit of a red flag, though it's not the best example of a red flag, imo.

What does Azure have to do with understanding a codebase? Azure is just a way to host an app.
