Why is azure ‘bad’? Is it because you dislike Microsoft?

In my experience Azure is really good and getting better. Even if AWS is more popular, Azure is gaining traction, is more intuitive and easier to use, and in my experience: cheaper

Had to do multi cloud with Azure, worked on network infrastructure, vnet, peering, firewall, vpn gateway, etc.

Documentation was almost worthless, leaving a lot of room for interpretation. Encountered and filed more bugs trying to get it up and running than I did for years of using Aws. Support was mediocre. Non existent ipv6 support. This was a few years ago and in comparison to Aws.
