Being Forced to Say Goodbye

Everything based on the bottom line
Using azure.
Pick one! I know why they’re a full Microsoft organisation, you’re already using office and exchange, so 365 makes sense, then teams makes sense, then may as well have some sharepoint storage, power platform is snazzy, and then oops we’re full azure hosted. I get why, it’s very convenient, has some good ecosystem integration benefits for the user and all the rest, but it certainly isn’t cheap.
Anyway, I’m sorry they’re kicking Linux and trashing years of hard work. That really sucks. Sadly new job time I think. But that’s easier said than done these days. Best of luck!

I work at a "Microsoft Shop" in a division that was a previously acquired software developer that used an entirely linux based dev stack.
That stack is still all linux and we basically have to do all our work in WSL. It's a pain.

Man it does stink. Get some of them up on GitHub or Gitlab if you can.

At least you learned a lot along your journey, while getting paid for it. So it's not entirely a waste of time.

That's a damn shame, I'm sorry! I hope you got to back up a few of your personal things, and if you didn't at least you have a bunch of knowledge to take onto your next project
-
Wow. You have some really cool quick-improvenent ideas alongside major improvements. OCR would have applications in so many other situations too!
It definitely sounds like you will be under-appreciated under the new owners, you have so much skill and knowledge that are kinda going to waste with them.
But based on your other comments here, you know this too. Best wishes and good luck in your search.

The more magic switch perhaps?

I feel simultaneously good and bad that the least modern team at my company is the Windows admin team. I hope they were embarrassed as shit when they were asked how that automated process I help them create 9 months ago was going and they said, "Uh, we'll be rolling it out this quarter." They're constantly at least 2 steps behind our Linux admins.

lol thanks. It must have somehow kept the quote format from another reply I made.
