And also it shows they don’t use their own products (the Reply All typo should shock the guy who owns the UI). The one software the dev team does use is Visual Studio, and it shows. It keeps evolving, not frozen in time in the 90s, the evolutions make sense, they are user centric, pretty much every version is a visible improvement over the previous version (except vs 2013). It’s basically the exact opposite of Office.

That theory breaks on Windows though. Is Microsoft a MacOS shop?

About Microsoft not eating their own dog food.

Nadella used an iphone secretly for a long time and then openly and then finally killed Windows Phone.

And it's also the only major Microsoft software that doesn't use a ribbon!
