Ha. I work for a company which has the word "Enterprise" in it. And fittingly, the full company name exceeds 50 characters which is helpful when filling out government forms.

Which one would make you run a mile?

Another anecdote: I manage a a couple of hundred VMs, databases, storage accounts, event hubs, Azure Web Apps and much more. Errors in the UI is pretty much a non-issue to me. I have multiple user accounts and manage multiple subscriptions and sometimes switching accounts gives me an error and I have to logout and back in. A bit annoying but hardly something which would make me switch.

I do suspect that their portal will not work well if the connection between you and their data center is shaky though.

How come?

Probably yes. The software I'm using supports configuring the character per domain, so I can use say . instead of +, so I could use [email protected] which I assume would solve that.

It's often called plus addressing. Quite a common feature in mail servers and mail services. MyName+<any-random-text> at gmail.com ends up in MyName's mailbox.

Off topic, but can you tell me more about the issue with being taken over by a private equity firm? I work for a 10k employee company who will be taken off stock exchange and sold to a Chinese equity firm.

Your original comments mostly contained your personal opinions, not actual facts. The fact is that it is open source and you are FUDing.

So it's maintained in the open on GitHub, it's technically open source in terms of licensing. Yet you claim it's not really open source. Care to clarify?

What do you mean by it not being open source? The core CLR is MIT licensed and the compiler is Apache licensed.

This sounds like fud to me.
