> How would I know, CodeFlow is internal to Microsoft.

Lots of people have worked for both Google and Microsoft. The article said CodeFlow was good. You said no, Critique is better! But I guess you don’t actually know one way or the other.

Which is too bad. Because it’d be great to hear thoughts from people who’ve tried both.

I have worked for both and prefer CodeFlow, my more detailed comment is above.

I see this arrogance inside Google lots.

The way we do things is the right way because that's what we do. Any disagreement is ignorance.

Nope, I did not. I just said that people really want Critique, which they do. Even CodeFlow itself is evidence of that.

Maybe what I really want is CodeFlow. Maybe Critique is evidence that I need CodeFlow in my life! It could be that you want CodeFlow in your life, you just don't know it yet.

Seeing that I haven't willingly used Windows in the last decade and wrote zero code for it, I highly doubt it. I would, however, pay for Critique+Blaze+Forge if Google offered it on Google Cloud. It's an incredible force multiplier.
